Today, May 31, 2024, several areas in northern and eastern Syria were targeted by Turkish state aircraft. In response, Kurdish Red Crescent ambulance teams intervened to transport and treat the injured and victims of these attacks.

While a medical team was performing their duty and attempting to reach the injured, they were targeted by Turkish aircraft in Amuda area near the village of Hatimiyah, resulting in the ambulance being completely out of service.

This is not the first time that the Turkish state has targeted ambulances operating in the humanitarian field, which bear clear Symbols of the Red Cross and Red Crescent.

As a humanitarian organization primarily operating in northern Syria, we cannot fulfill our humanitarian duty without adequate protection for our teams. Therefore, we call on partner and international organizations to stand against these strikes by the Turkish state, which openly target workers in the humanitarian and service sectors in northern Syria.
