According to the YPG's official media wing, their sleeper cell ambushed a Free Syrian Army (FSA) vehicle in the Shera District of Afrin over the weekend.

"On December 8th, one of our units carried out an operation in Afrin’s Shera district, targeting the military vehicle of the Sultan Murad Division commander named Abu al-Mot, who was in charge of the so-called Defense Committee. As a result, the terrorist commander was killed and another mercenary was wounded," the YPG said.
