BEIRUT (AP) — Commercial brakes produced by a Dutch company to be used in ambulances in Turkey have instead ended up in missiles used by Turkey in attacks in northeastern Syria. That’s according to report released Tuesday by London-based research group Conflict Armament Research. Between September 2021 and June 2022, field investigators with the research group analyzed the remnants of 17 air-to-surface missiles used in strikes in northeast Syria, the report says. An analysis of the components of the wreckage has found that the missiles were manufactured by by Roketsan, a Turkish defense manufacturer.
