Sorry to post this again, but it states "the Turkish backed forces moved on the facility on Tuesday." That's 2 days ago. I didn't believe this post at the time but when you put it together with the new blue blob and the reports that the PKK regained some villages around Ain Isa means that the...
TSK map has not shown any Turks in that area . Even Liveumap hasn't shown any posts regarding turks capturing that area but they did add a blue blob on the map today that wasn't previously there. That whole area has not had any announcements from SNA or TAF.
So the fact that they say they have...
The Turks couldn't negotiate effectively with the Russians before because they were being played by the Americans. The Russians with Tel Rifat and Manbij were simply doing exactly what the Americans were doing with Manbij. But now the situation is different. Putin is just trying his luck but...

Turks have to be more sensitive than anyone else. We have seen how much the coalition, Russia, Assad and BKK value life in Syria. The areas they take under control have been bombed to dust.
Julian posted a few days prior how fast the operation was going. We are only one week into the operation with very few casualties and an area larger than the Golan Heights has been liberated.
Turkey has been suffering before this crisis. The Feto attempted coup was supported by US along with Arab states and others. Members that escaped have sought refuge in Europe especially Germany. The leader is still allowed to operate freely in US.
Turkey has come under economic attacks for...
Syria was almost peaceful? I don't know what your idea of peaceful is but the two posts I have seen of yours contain some sort of insult.
Declaring an entire block of people terrorists? Erdogan has always said that the Kurds are our brothers and we are fighting the YPG/PKK not Kurds. It's the...
