YPG/PKK terror groups uses US-originated TOW anti-tank missiles in Syria's Manbij

MANBIJ, SYRIA - JUNE 7: The YPG/PKK terrorist organization is found to have used US-originated TOW anti-tank missiles in the northern Syrian district of Manbij. Photos obtained by Anadolu Agency, the anti-tank missiles can be clearly seen. The YPG/PKK terror group forced tens of thousands of civilians to migrate to areas near the Turkish border from the Manbij district of Aleppo, which they took with US support six years ago under the guise of battling Daesh/ISIS terrorists. In Manbij, where 99% of the population is Arab, the terrorist group is driving people to migrate by utilizing coercive measures such as forcibly recruiting young people to its armed group under the cover of "compulsory military service." The displaced people from Manbij have been living away from their homes for about six years in makeshift tents set up with their own means around Bab and Jarablus districts along the Turkish border. The YPG/PKK terror group has maintained their coercive tactics, harassing civilians with "compulsory military service" and other subjugation measures. People in Manbij who oppose the YPG/PKK terror group's coercive actions hold protests from time to time to express their dissatisfaction and rejection of such illegal practice. To penalize the local population, the terror group has monopolized patrol in the district and has been depriving people of much-needed gasoline. Before the civil war, the district had a population of about one million people. Moreover, after being chased out of the territories by Turkish forces, terrorists in Manbij periodically target Jarablus and Bab districts in the safe zone. The YPG/PKK terror group often mounts attacks on Jarabulus, Afrin, and Azaz from the Manbij and Tal Rifat areas in Syria. (Footage by Samer Uveyd /Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
