The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Sunday a Russian patrol withdrew from a village in the Hasakah camp in western Syria after “clashing with people who expressed their rejection of the Russian presence” in their areas.
According to the Observatory, the Russian patrol officer who was stationed for a few hours in the village of Ein Dewar in the Hasaka camp accused people of “taking money” to intercept the Russian patrols, but the people, especially women, he responded with “severity”.
The Observatory quoted its sources as saying that one of the village women told the officer: “Get out of here. We don’t want you, we are safe.” “You can go and take it from Erdogan … What have you done here? … We don’t need your protection.”
And the French Press Agency published images of the incident, which it said took place in the city of Derbek (Al-Malikiyah) in Al-Hasakah.
The observatory said the Russian convoy consisted of 11 military vehicles and was prevented from crossing the main road into the city.
The Syrians accuse the Russian military of supporting the regime to carry out raids that have killed thousands of civilians, and the Russian air force is accused of being responsible for the deaths of many Syrians through its raids.
Last May, Amnesty International said it had documented 18 attacks by the Syrian regime and Russian forces on medical and educational facilities over the past year in northwestern Syria, warning that they amount to “war crimes.”
Starting last year, regime forces, with the support of Russia, carried out several military campaigns against the governorate of Idlib and its surroundings, where nearly three million people reside in the areas controlled by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham ( formerly al-Nusra) and other less powerful factions.
The organization documented among the attacks, Russian raids near a hospital in the city of Jericho on January 29, which resulted in the destruction of at least two residential buildings and the death of 11 civilians.
He also reported that he was documenting an internationally banned attack by regime forces on a school in Idlib city on February 25, which killed three people.
The war in Syria has killed more than 380,000 people, displaced millions and displaced more than half of the population within and outside the country, as well as destroyed infrastructure, depleted the economy and exhausted various sectors.
