The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported that Turkish jets bombed the Auda oil station near Tirbespi (Qahtaniya) and oil sites in the countryside of Derik (Malikiyeh).
The Turkish strikes come after the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) fighters killed 12 Turkish soldiers in the Kurdistan Region.
The Turkish Defense Ministry confirmed that Turkish jets on Saturday evening targeted 29 targets in both Iraq and Syria.
Between Oct. 5-10, Turkish airstrikes damaged more than half of Kurdish-held northeast Syria's power and oil infrastructure, dealing a blow to its petroleumenergy-dependent economy.
The strikes on more than 150 locations in north and east Syria in the governorates of Hasakeh, Raqqa, and Aleppo, killed dozens of people including civilians, and damaged civilian structures, civic groups said.
