It is confirmed that this site was a large ammunition depot belonging to the terrorist PKK militias and the terrorist SDF militias. The so-called “Internal Security Forces affiliated with SDF” in the city of Aleppo issued a lengthy statement claiming that the targeted site was a hospital.

We affirm that the Syrian Arab Army opened humanitarian corridors, extended deadlines multiple times, and published these maps solely to protect civilians and ensure their safety — not the opposite.
