In Nusaybin district of Mardin where a curfew remains in effect in its ninth day, aggression by state forces against civilians continues.

Turkish state forces started a fresh offensive against Abdulkadirpaşa and Fırat neighborhoods with tanks and artillery fire last night.

A 55-year-old civilian by the name of Şerif Alpar was shot in the head as he attempted to go near his relatives in Fırat neighborhood from Abdulkadirpaşa neighborhood late last night.

While the man lost his life at the scene, residents managed to take his body into a garden after a long while. Alpar’s body is still denied access to hospital due to the ongoing intensified attacks.
