Why is Turkey’s military fighting the YPG in Afrin, Syria

in politics •  7 years ago  (edited)

Turkey has just launched a military campaign in Syria called ‘Operation Olive Branch’. The border mission is to clear the area of the SDF, formerly known as the YPG. The YPG is an affiliate of the PKK, which NATO and its allies regard as a terrorist group. The group controls more than 65 percent of the Turkey-Syria border. The small Syrian city of Afrin is one of two major SDF strongholds.

That is not a picture of you.

I can do it, I did do it, it is done. Done by me and seen by me, and known by me by seeing.
