Ibrahim Khalaf, director of social affairs, told SANA that more than 130 families have been displaced from Abu Rasin and nearby villages in the past two days as a result of attacks by the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries. The displaced families fled to the Tal Tamr district, and safer farms and villages. 

Khalaf said no displaced families have been admitted to Hassakeh so far. Several days ago, the Turkish occupier intensified artillery shelling on Tal Tamr, Abu Rasin, Zarkan, Aghebish, and others in the north-western countryside of Hasakeh. This resulted in significant damage to civilian homes, property, and infrastructure.
