AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A car bomb exploded in a northern Syrian town along the border with Turkey on Saturday killing at least 3 people, Turkey's Defense Ministry said.
The ministry said more than 20 people were injured in the explosion in an industrial zone of Tal Abyad. Turkish troops and Turkey-backed fighters captured the city from Kurdish-led fighters in October.
The ministry blamed Syrian Kurdish fighters for the attack, AP reported.
Two other car bombs have hit Tal Abyad this month, killing at least 21 people.
Turkey is seeking to expand its areas of influence in Syria’s north, pushing Kurdish fighters away from its borders. Ankara views those Kurdish militants as terrorists for their links to a Kurdish insurgency inside Turkey.
