The IED attack in Afrin city was detonated between a busy marketplace and a military institution, leading to many deaths. And yes, one of the YPG acronyms was probably the culprit.

This doesn’t mean there is evidence one of the offshoots was behind the attack, nor that anyone will claim, or even that it wasn’t an ISIS attack.

But let’s not rule out the obvious suspect just because there is no evidence present, let us focus on the patterns instead.
