2015-06-15
[al-Alam] Three sides including Kurdish YPG, small Rebel groups and ISIS terrorist engage in fighting around Turkish border.

The Syrian Kurdish YPG militia said it began an advance towards an ISIS-held town at the Turkish border on Saturday, thrusting deeper into the terrorist's stronghold of Raqqa province.

Redur Xelil, the YPG front man, told Rooters the YPG and smaller "Syrian Arab rebel groups" fighting alongside it had begun the move towards Tel Abyad after encircling the ISIS-held town of Suluk 20 km to the southeast.

The advance raises the prospect of a big battle at the Turkish border between the well-organized YPG militia and ISIS in Tel Abyad which is important to ISIS as the nearest border town to its de facto capital of Raqqa city,Daily Stars reported.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
says thousands of people have already fled across its border to escape fighting between the YPG and ISIS near Tel Abyad.
