ALEPPO, SYRIA (JAN. 11, 2026) (ANADOLU- ACCESS ALL)

1. VARIOUS OF INTERIOR OF HOSPITAL USED AS HEADQUARTERS BY TERRORIST ORGANIZATION YPG/SDF / ROCKET LAUNCHERS, RIFLES, AND HAND GRENADES BELONGING TO TERRORIST ORGANIZATION / DAMAGED FURNITURE ALL AROUND ALEPPO, SYRIA - JAN. 11, 2026: A hospital in the Sheikh Maqsoud neighborhood of Aleppo, which was converted into a headquarters by the YPG/SDF terrorist organization group, is now free after the militants were evacuated from the area.

They were among the groups that were the last YPG/SDF militants to leave Aleppo.

Located in the center of the neighborhood, Yasin Hospital was renamed “Khaled Fajr Hospital” during the period when the organization held the area under occupation.

Anadolu footage showed that all sections of the hospital had been rigged with explosives by the organization.

There were large quantities of weapons and military equipment inside the hospital, including anti-tank weapons, rocket launchers, rifles, hand grenades, assault vests and numerous rounds of ammunition.

The Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh neighborhoods have now been cleared of YPG/SDF elements and are under the control of the Syrian Army.

Since Tuesday, the SDF has shelled residential neighborhoods, civilian facilities, and Syrian Army positions in Aleppo, killing 24 people, wounding nearly 130, and displacing about 165,000 residents from the Ashrafieh and Sheikh Maqsoud districts, according to official figures.

In March 2025, the Syrian presidency announced the signing of an agreement for the SDF’s integration into state institutions, reaffirming the country's territorial unity and rejecting any attempts at division.

In April 2025, Syrian authorities signed an agreement with the SDF concerning the Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh neighborhoods, stipulating that both districts would be considered administrative parts of the city of Aleppo while respecting their local particularities.

The agreement also included provisions to ban armed manifestations, restrict weapons to internal security forces, and require the withdrawal of SDF military forces to areas east of the Euphrates River in northeastern Syria.

But authorities said that in the months since, the SDF has not shown any efforts to meet the terms of the agreements.

The Syrian government has intensified efforts to maintain security across the country since the ouster of the Assad regime in December 2024, after 24 years in power.
