2019-10-19 Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Heavy fighting between Turkish/SNA and YPG/SDF forces in northern Syria, especially around Ain Issa and Ras al-Ayn

The Jerusalem Post adds:
On the border shelling could be heard near the Syrian town of Ras al Ain on Friday morning despite Thursday's deal, and a spokesman for the Kurdish-led forces said Turkey was violating the ceasefire, hitting civilian targets in the town.

But Reuters journalists at the border said the bombardment subsided around mid-morning and a US official said most of the fighting had stopped, although it would "take time for things to completely quiet down."
