Explosions reportedly occurred after a blast in a terror camp in Syria's Hasakah province

Multiple explosions hit the camp of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK)-affiliated Democratic Union Party (PYD) in Hasakah province of Syria.



The explosions followed a blast at a terror camp in Tel Temur village. The cause of the blaze is unknown. Initial reports said some people were killed.



The PKK/PYD terrorist organization declared in 2013 that a camp was established.





Since last year, U.S. soldiers have been training PKK/PYD terrorists there.



Ankara denounces the PYD and YPG as affiliates of the PKK terrorist organization, which have been conducting terrorist attacks targeting Turkey for three decades and which is designated as a terrorist group by Turkey, the United States and the European Union.





However, Washington insists on indicating that YPG is their ally against Daesh, despite Turkey's warnings.



Recent reports revealed that the U.S. has been sharing intelligence with the PKK/PYD in Syria as a move against Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army soldiers.
