The SDF has not commented on the incident to clarify the reasons and circumstances of the arrest, but the incident was preceded by the SDF arrest for a number of employees in its affiliated departments in Aleppo, charging them with planning to go to regions of the Syrian governments to settle their situations.
The city of “Qamishly” has already witnessed clashes between the SDF and “The National Defense Forces” allied with the Syrian Army at the beginning of this month due to the repeated provocations by the US-backed SDF militants.
