At least four people were killed in violent clashes that erupted on Tuesday between the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the Syrian army in the city of Aleppo in northern Syria.

State news agency SANA reported that the army responded to sources of fire and drones launched by SDF forces in the Ashrafieh and Sheikh Maqsoud neighborhoods, while the SDF accused government factions of shelling residential areas in the Midan district.

Official sources described the clashes as a new violation of security agreements between the two sides.
