Syrian authorities sent 550 soldiers to support terrorists of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (RPK) and its Syrian wing of the ONS, which control the areas border with Turkey in the north of the Arab Republic. Turkish sources report that these forces were sent on the basis of an agreement reached during negotiations between the Kurds and the Syrian authorities in Khmeimim and Kamyshly, as well as in Manbij through the mediation of Russia. The soldiers of the Syrian army are transferred to the front line in the regions of Manbij, Kobani and Ain-sisa on the eve of the expected new anti-terrorist operation of Turkey. According to the agreement, the Assad regime will send armored vehicles and heavy weapons to support the Kurds.
According to the agreements reached between the Syrian regime and the RPK/ONS, the Syrian national flags will be raised in the regions that are currently under the control of the so -called “Syrian democratic forces.” At the same time, the joint operational center of the Syrian army and the forces of the RPK/ONS will be created.
“Syrian democratic forces”, consisting mainly of RPK/ONS militants, are also negotiating with the United States. On the eve of Koban, a delegation of the international coalition led by the United States set off. It is reported that the delegation includes 30-40 American, French and British troops. Then the delegation went to Manbij, where she held negotiations at the headquarters of the Kurds.
According to Turkish media reports, the United States, against the backdrop of an approaching offensive operation, Ankara in Syria demanded that the Kurds transfer the city of Manbij and its surroundings to Turkey.
“Military Source from the ONS (” Folk Self -Defense Units “) reports that the American delegation proposed to transfer the city of Manbij of Turkey and the Syrian National Army to protect the regions controlled by the ONS east of the Euphrates from a large Turkish military operation,” the report said in the message . In case of refusal, the American side will not provide support.
It is expected that after the holiday of Kurban (Eid al-Fitr), the Turkish army will begin military operations to clean the regions of Manbij and the TV arfat in the north of Syria from the RPK terrorists. TRT Haber reports that the Turkish army continues to prepare for hostilities in the region. The Syrian National Army is also concentrated on the contact line, which in the upcoming military operation will operate together with the Turkish army. In particular, many fighters of the “brigade of the Sultan Murad”, consisting mainly of Turkman, are concentrated on the contact line.
