Turkish troops, Syrian rebels take over Kurdish town
2019-10-24
[IsraelTimes] Ottoman Turkish media reports say Ottoman Turkish troops and allied Syrian rebels are securing a town in northeastern Syria after Syrian Kurdish fighters pulled out of the area.

The private DHA news agency says the Ottoman Turkish soldiers and Syrian rebels are using heavy machinery to fill in tunnels dug by the Kurdish fighters in Ras al Ayn. They were also disposing of traps or explosives left behind.

The private NTV television, meanwhile, showed a group of Syrian rebels standing on the roof of a building that was reportedly the Syrian Kurdish fighters’ headquarters, unfurling the Ottoman Turkish and Syrian opposition flags.

The move came after the US announced Syrian Kurdish fighters completed their pullout from Ras al Ayn and other areas The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
