Why are they announcing such Operations?
I mean is it not better for us to catch them off guard?

that's because it's fake, no operation will come now just words. It's not the first time
To add to that.
Politicians manage to make such statements without being confronted for it given the details and execution of operations is not their responsibility but that of the military itself. A president can make statements, actual execution is outside of their hands.

To make sure there's no conflict with the US or Russia. This way they know Turkey is serious and there's a few days to avert serious issues if they exist. YPG has no hope against Turkey anyway so militarily it's not a big loss. The same kind of announcement was made prior to Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch.

Its intentioal and part of strategy for years now. They have a purpose. Turkey dengled statments like these over and over , going back before euphrates shield. Majotiry never came to fruition, but 3 did. Remember OLive branch, it was dengled multiple times, and then it heppened still having a suprise effect - majotiry of analysts were Erdogan is bluffing again. Idlib thing also was a suprise, again narrative was Turks are bluffing they will never stand up to Russia...we all know what heppened.
Also, there is rising mistrust on YPG side towards US in recent months, after Jeffreys took the Syria file : US-Turkey joint patrols started rolling, putting those PKK leaders on US terrorist list.
case and point
this is also interesting. YPG propaganda channles were losing they mind.
That too. Ot just to test the waters, retle the cage a bit.
US if they are smart and indeed want to contain Iran and Russia in Syria, Turkey is only actor that they should be working with. YPG is heavily invloved with the regime and iranian proxies, coordinating with them in Aleppo, I mean who came to Afrin to give them a hand, even now their cells infiltratign Afrin are coming from regime teritory, they are not parachuting into Afrin. Also with Turkey as and ally, zone of contaiment can be set up to strech all the way to Latakia and Idlib. Choosing YPG as a proxy was one of major blunders of Obamas Syrian policy..

I wonder if the freeze in progress against ISIS near Deir Ezzor for the past year has been YPG dragging its feet knowing that once they finish the job they will be thrown to the sharks (Turkey). If US realises this, they might have an agreement with Turkey where, when YPG cries and retreats from DeZ due to a Turkish assault, Turkey provides rebel forces to replace the YPG there to do what the YPG refused to and finish the job.

Haggling table is much heated up than ever. However , never before have such precise expressions been used for about east of Euphrates.
Presidency's statement same as the format before the operation of Afrin. Contrary to popular belief of our some Arab brothers, this style is not the usual form of expression here.
Personally, I expect a comprehensive chain of special operations. We will see how many PKK terrorists will be able to protect in 22 US base areas marked on the map. A cold season to stay outside.
