 Damascus: Turkey violates Syrian sovereignty

Turkey has unilaterally moved the state border with Syria deeper into the Syrian territories near the Afrin River, thus in fact capturing Syrian lands and violating Syrian sovereignty, the Syrian Ambassador to Russia Riyad Haddad said.

"Turkey used the drying up of the Afrin River to the southwest of the town of Jenderis and moved the barbed wire that marks the border deeper into our territory, as if it were Turkish land already. Therefore, Syrian soil is being captured," Sputnik cited Haddad as saying.

"We consider these actions a violation of our country's sovereignty," the ambassador added.
