A man, identified as 40-year-old Mahmoud Hussein al-Khalaf from al-Jarad village in northwestern Manbij city in eastern rural Aleppo governorate, was injured by September 5, 2024, by a shell fired by unidentified parties, which landed near his house in his home village. The shell was fired amid clashes between the Syrian National Army (SNA) and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) near the village. The area is under the control of Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) suspects that the shell was fired by either the SNA or the SDF, considering that the village is located on the dividing lines between the territories controlled by the two parties. Investigations are still ongoing to accurately identify the party responsible.
