Fatma Avlar, a high-school student, was killed in the early hours of Jan. 31 when a rocket hit her family home in Hatay’s Reyhanlı district.

Since the beginning of the Turkey's border mission in Syria, seven Turkish civilians have been killed by YPG rocket attacks on the border areas.

One of them - was 17 years old Fatma Avlar.

Many students from her school say life in the town on the Turkey-Syria border has changed since they became direct targets of cross-border attacks by the YPG.

Officials in the border town of Reyhanli are now trying to help her traumatised classmates.
