Heavy Turkish bombardment targets Manbij, says local council
Heavy ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire... said it was clearing the area from "terrorists." Dozens of shells targeted villages and district Manbij in an offensive that started on late Thursday evening and continued until the morning hours of Friday, according to Manbij Military Council. The council stated that the number of shells reached 120 and counting, but it did not report any casualties. The recent bombardments come after  ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than there are in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really most important...on Wednesday said Ankara was clearing Tel Rifaat and Manbij from "terrorists," as a part of its new military operation in northern Syria. Last week he hinted at a new military operation into northern Syria to create a 30 kilometre "security zone" along its southern border. It is presumably aimed to push back Kurdish fighters from the area. Farhad Shami, head of the Syrian Democratic Forces' media office on Friday said Ankara had bombarded Tinnab village south of Afrin in northwest Syria, injuring one child and killing dozens of livestock. The United Nations ...an idea whose time has gone... on Thursday urged all parties to "exercise maximum restraint" in Syria. Turkey has launched two offensives against Kurdish fighters in Syria since 2018. It alleges that the fighters are allied with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), an gang fighting for the increased rights of Kurds in Turkey and is viewed as a terrorist organization by Ankara.
