Turkey carries out regular drone attacks in areas controlled by the Kurdish administration in Syria, and has stepped up its strikes in recent weeks.

Ankara considers the People's Protection Units (YPG), which dominate the SDF, to be an offshoot of the banned Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), designated as a terrorist group by Turkey and its Western allies.

A press release by the SDF said Friday's drone attack targeted a village in the Amuda region, "making martyrs of four fighters in a self-defence group".

Britain-based war monitor the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which has a wide network of sources on the ground, said the drone had attacked a training camp in Hasakeh province, killing four SDF members and wounding eight.

Since 2016, Turkey has also carried out successive ground operations to expel Kurdish forces from border areas of northern Syria.
