1/ Shooting 10 minutes ago very near to us as we were driving through the city of Qamishli in northern #Syria. We filmed the incident on our phone.

Unedited footage. This is what happened. We're safe now.

٢/ إطلاق نار قريب، من حوالي ١٠ دقائق، بينما كنا نتنقل في مدينة القامشلي السورية.

نحن بأمان ولكن هذا ما حصل.

3/ We are outside Qamishli. More and more refugees on the road. These people just passed us. They are Kurds from Ras al Ayn and are already on the run since Wednesday.

They are so, so scared.

4/ I just passed SDF checkpoint in northern Syria. Due to escape of ISIS prisoners today, there are new rules at checkpoints: Every vehicle must be stopped & if necessary searched. Each passenger must show ID.

Kurds here very worried that ISIS might go on local killing spree.

٥/ بالقرب من القامشلي، التقيت بنازحين اكراد مرهقين من الحرب.

تركوا بيوتهم في مدينة رأس العين السورية ومنذ ٥ ايام يتنقلون من منطقة إلى أخرى بحثا عن الأمان.
