Description
Turkey-backed fighters man a military position in the Syrian area of Jibrin in Aleppo's eastern countryside, across from the Kurdish-controlled area of Tal Rifaat. Turkey has launched waves of attacks on Syria since 2016 targeting Kurdish groups as well as Islamic State group jihadists and Assad loyalists, and is threatening with a new offensive against Tal Rifaat and Manbij, two towns under the control of the People's Protection Units (YPG), a Kurdish militia accused by Turkey of being affiliated with the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), classified as terrorist by Ankara.
