The YPG/SDG terror group carried out a suicide drone attack targeting a military vehicle belonging to the Syrian Army in Aleppo’s countryside, the country's Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.
In a statement carried by Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), the ministry’s Media and Communications Department said: “The SDF organization targeted with a suicide drone a military vehicle of the Syrian Arab Army near the town of Sarrin in Aleppo’s countryside.”
No further details were immediately provided regarding casualties or damage.
The attack came after the Syrian presidency said on Tuesday that a “mutual understanding” has been reached with the SDF group regarding the future of the Hasakah province.
The Defense Ministry also announced a four-day ceasefire with the SDF, which took effect at 8 pm local time (1700GMT) on Tuesday.
