A car bomb attack was foiled by local security forces in Syria's northwestern Afrin district on Tuesday, according to local sources.
The bomb found inside a car during a routine security check in Afrin center was disposed of by bomb squads.
Since 2016, Turkey's Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch operations in northern Syria have liberated the region from the YPG/PKK and Daesh terrorists, including Al-Bab, Afrin, and Azaz, making it possible for Syrians who fled the violence there to return home.
Syria has only just begun to emerge from a devastating conflict that began in 2011 when the Bashar al-Assad regime cracked down on demonstrators with unexpected ferocity.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians have been killed or displaced in the conflict, mainly by regime airstrikes targeting opposition-held areas.
