DAMASCUS: At least three Turkey-backed police officers were killed and seven others wounded in a car bomb explosion in northern Syria, a war monitor reported on Sunday.
The explosion ripped through a checkpoint of Turkey-backed police corps in the city of al-Bab in the northeastern countryside of Aleppo province on Saturday night, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The death toll will likely rise due to the number of critically wounded people.
Al-Bab and other areas in the northern countryside of Aleppo are controlled by the Turkish forces and Turkey-backed rebel groups.
