BEIRUT, LEBANON (3:45 P.M.) – The Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG) were filmed recently firing an Iranian-manufactured Toophan-1 anti-tank missile at a Turkish Army decoy in the Afrin Canton of Aleppo.
Based on the footage from the tweet below, the YPG missile struck an inflatable Turkish Army decoy that is used to trick opposing forces.Bugun Şehba'ya bağlı #Maranaze'de vurulan işgalci Türk Ordusu tankı.

The Iranian-made Toophan-1 is modeled after the US-manufactured BGM-71 TOW anti-tank missile and currently used by the Syrian military and other Iranian-backed units in the country.
The YPG likely got hold of the anti-tank missile from the black market or the Syrian government.
