President of Turkey: Al bab almost under total control. Next goal Manbij and Raqqa

yalan haber atıp durma be, nerde yazıyo?
source ?

Where does he say "next target is raqqa, manbij?"

"Bir defa El Bab, bizim nihai hedefimiz değildir. Bizim nihai hedefimiz, DEAŞ'tan bu bölgenin temizlenmesidir. Kaldı ki biz şu anda biliyorsunuz, üç bini aşkın DEAŞ'lıyı etkisiz hale getirdik. Fakat, DEAŞ'ın asıl merkezi El Bab değil, asıl merkezi Rakka ve Rakka temizlendiği andan itibaren özellikle bu bölge terörden arındırılmış bir bölge haline gelmiş olacak. Buradaki nihai hedef de 5 bin kilometrekarelik bir alanı temizlemektir. Bizim Türkiye olarak burada kalmak gibi bir hedefimiz yok. O ayrı bir konu.''

Bir seyi yalan olarak nitelendirmeden once bir arastirma yap cahil.

Cumhurbaşkanı Erdoğan Körfez ülkeleri ziyareti öncesi yaptığı açıklamada, "El Bab hallolmak üzere bundan sonrası için Münbiç ve Rakka var. Hedef 4-5 bin kilometrelik güvenli bölgedir" dedi

Raqqa claims are to tell Trump hey we're here and ready to play. Even if they don't end up going with us it might stall/delay them a bit more.

FSA retreated from Bzaa.

It is so weird. FSA is the one who has night vision capability with TAF support, not IS. But we lost areas at night while we capture them at morning. Really awkward.

Retreating (without a fight) from Bazaa is not a bad idea. it will be make ISIS stretch their forces from Al bab and then it will be easier to engage in the town. This retreat tactics are not always bad or akward.

This isn't what you describe a tactical retreat, it's not the first time. They don't want to die so they avoid the confrontation, no will to keep it, not enough anger against IS.

It's not weird at all. There is a difference between holding a position and attacking/conquering a position. Furthermore, there is no need to lose manpower for conquering a already surrounded city like Biza. For me this approach makes sense.

Agree. There is no need to lose manpower to defend Bzaa against few sand monkeys, just put few Remote Controlled Weapon station on few buildings in the enterance of Bzaa => problem solved. IS scums will be dead at night without knowing who hit them.

Retreating doesnt really make sense.

Could be one reason

About 150 fighters of #Daesh arrived today to #Albab. They came from the east. Road is observed by #Assad forces. #A24

They fire longer in this one I think.

I read that it was later destroyed by a Turkish tank but can't find the source.
Btw, our members should trust each other, despite to existing different opinions.
They are scanning all available sources before posting them here.
Interrogating other members presents us as a deep divided weak society.

Here is one example.
But some people didn't trusted the poster and reffered to Numan Kurtulmus.

El Bab'dan sonra Fırat Kalkanı harekatının biteceğine yönelik açıklamaları hatırlatan muhabire 'Bu açıklamayı kim yaptı' diye soran Erdoğan, şehit haberleri aldığımız Fırat Kalkanı harekatı ile ilgili ayrıntılı bir açıklama yaptı. Erdoğan'ın açıklaması Hükümet Sözcüsü Numan Kurtulmuş'un açıklamasının tam tersine harekatın genişleyeceği yönünde oldu.
