Some activists have reported that Syrian Democratic Forces, which Kurdish units constitute their main strength, shoveled dozens of houses in a number of villages in the southern countryside of Al-Hasakah last Tuesday under the pretext of infiltration and attacks launched by "ISIS" against SDF from those villages.

A private source confirmed to Baladi News that these forces are accompanied by a number of bulldozers which broke into the villages of Al-Sa'di and Al-Azawi and many others in the southern part of Al-Shadadi town with about 15 km and shoveled a great number of houses that led to displacing their people.

Since the breaking of SDF forces into the region of the southern part of Al-Hasakah under the pretext of fighting ISIS, they have committed savage and terroristic acts against the people of the towns and villages who are all Arabs, according to the activist Mudar Al-Ass'ad.

In his speech with Baladi News, the activist accused these forces of indiscriminate murder and arresting people on their family names, adding that everyone who was wanted for the regime before the breaking of ISIS, has become pursued, especially those who defected from the Syrian army or those who participated in peaceful demonstrations or the Free Army battalions or even those who have been pursued by ISIS who couldn't escape from the pursuit of PYD".

The activist pointed out that the number of the destroyed houses in those villages is estimated by hundreds, whereas some other areas were 80% destroyed such as the city of Al-Shadadi and the villages of Al-Sa'idia, Kashkash Al-Jabour, Al-Azawi, Al-Fadghmah and Jalal.

Al-Assa'd explained that the operations of destruction and shoveling in the governorate of Al-Hasakah have become a norm exercised by PYD militias that renamed later as (Syrian Democratic Forces). Such militias did the same actions in the villages of Tel Brak, Tel Khamis, in the countryside of Ra'as Al-Ayn, Abdul Aziz Mountain, Al-Hawl, south of Al-Rad, and in the southern and southeastern countryside of Al-Qamishli.

He also stressed that the aim is displacing the largest majority of Arabs from Al-Hasakah governorate in addition to expelling all the rebels by destroying their houses as well as destroying the houses of the region's dignitaries who refused to support the Kurdish federalism or annexing Al-Shaddadi region.

He concluded that anyone who doesn't support Syrian Democratic militias or PYD or the Federalism and refuses to join their battalions is a terrorist that has to be held accountable and consequently destroy his house along with confiscating his property.
