The Turkish Ministry of Defense reported that official Ankara is closely monitoring clashes between government troops and Kurds in Aleppo. It is emphasized that she is not involved in recent events.
“The security of Syria is our security. We support Syria in the fight against terrorist groups that threaten the unity and territorial integrity of the country. We are ready to provide the necessary assistance if Syria requires it,” said the ministry’s spokesman.
Türkiye considers the Syrian Democratic Forces, a Kurdish militia operating in Syria, an offshoot of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, which is recognized as a terrorist group not only by Turkey, but also by many Western countries.
Let us remind you: during armed clashes between government troops and the Syrian Democratic Forces in the north-west of Aleppo, at least eight people were killed and more than 50 were injured. The parties hold each other accountable.
