Afrin is a region of Aleppo province in northwestern Syria, south of the Turkish border, strategically located and historically a gateway between Syria and Anatolia. The region is known for its fertile agricultural plains, particularly olive cultivation, which has a long history and is known as the "olive grove of Syria".In 2018, Turkey launched a military operation to take control of Afrin, and since then the situation has been characterized by continued unrest, damage to infrastructure, and displacement of the population. Afrin has a rich cultural heritage, including ancient mosques and traditional villages, but the conflict has caused severe damage to its historical sites. Currently, the area remains one of the focal points of the situation in northern Syria, with serious humanitarian challenges.
