As part of operation Euphrates Shield, coalition forces carried out three air strikes against detected ISIS members in the Bahvurtah region, the Turkish General Staff said in a statement. The Army said four ISIS members were "neutralized" and two building and two mortars were destroyed. Operation Euphrates Shield began last month and saw the Free Syrian Army ... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund... , backed by Turkish Armed Forces, take the city of Jarabulus from ISIS. A total area of 900 square kilometers (347 miles) has been cleansed of snuffies in northern Syria, according to the Turkish Army. ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... has said Operation Euphrates Shield is aimed at bolstering border security, supporting coalition forces and eliminating the threat posed by terror organizations, especially ISIS. The operation is in line with the country’s right to self-defense borne out of international treaties and a mandate given to Turkey’s armed forces by parliament in 2014, which was extended for another year in September 2015. |
