On January 15, 2025, a drone, believed to be operated by Turkish forces, attack a group of cars near Tishreen Dam in the rural areas of Manbij city in eastern rural Aleppo governorate. The attack killed a man, identified as Omar Darwish from Ein al-Arab city in eastern rural Aleppo governorate who worked as an ambulance driver, was killed, while others were injured. The area targeted is under the control of Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) notes that Turkish forces have violated international humanitarian law by killing civilians through this indiscriminate or deliberate bombardment, as they have failed to distinguish between civilians and fighters.
