A man, identified as Hassan Ibrahim al-Assaf from Araba’at Saghir village to the south of Manbij city in eastern rural Aleppo governorate, was killed on January 4, 2025, by the explosion of a landmine of unidentified source in the vicinity of Arba’at Saghir village. The area is under the control of the Syrian National Army (SNA).
