ABNA: The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the attack took place on Thursday afternoon in Tal Halaf village, which lies west of the strategic border city of Ra’s al-Ayn.
The Turkish Defense Ministry blamed YPG militants for the explosion in a post on Twitter.
On November 26, a car bomb killed at least 17 people and wounded 20 others in the same Syrian village.
Turkey’s Defense Ministry blamed the attack on the Kurdish YPG militants at the time.
“The PKK/YPG terror group continues its car bombings aimed at civilians. The child murderers this time detonated a car bomb in Tal Halaf village west of Ra’s al-Ayn, killing 17 people and wounding more than 20,” the ministry said on its official Twitter account then.
On October 9, Turkish military forces and Ankara-backed militants launched a long-threatened cross-border invasion of northeastern Syria in a declared attempt to push YPG militants away from border areas.
