Turkey has vowed not to harm civilians in Afrin as it bombs the Syrian Kurdish region amid the first reports of civilian casualties.
Every kind of attention and sensitivity will be shown so that civilians and innocent people will not be harmed," Gen. Hulusi Akar from the Turkish General Staff said in a video address.
He repeated that Turkey is primarily targeting the forces and infrastructure of Islamic State and Kurdish-linked PKK/KCK/PYD-YPG forces, which Ankara considers terrorists.
