Russian military, US-backed forces conduct joint patrols near Manbij
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Russian Army and U.S.-backed Manbij Military Council conducted their third round of patrols in the Manbij countryside this month.

According to local reports, the Russian Army and Manbij Military Council patrolled much of the western countryside of Manbij, with most of their focus on the nearby town of al-Arima.

Al-Arima is where the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has been stationed at since they made an agreement with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) to protect Manbij from the Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels.

Despite the agreement, the Syrian Arab Army is still outside the city and will not enter until further notice.
