Reports have it that 22 people were killed and dozens injured in an explosion at a Kurdish wedding in the northeast Syrian city of Hasaka. According to Al Jazeera, the Kurdish YPG, or People’s Protection Units, said it was unclear whether the blast was caused by a explosive device or a suicide bomber.
But a statement by the ISIL-affiliated Amaq news agency said a suicide bomber had attacked a gathering of Kurdish YPG fighters on the edge of the city with machine guns and an explosive vest. Hasaka is mainly in the hands of the YPG after it evicted the Syrian army in August.
