US official urges 'de-escalation' as Turkiye strikes Syria
[ARABNEWS] A US official in Syria on Friday called for an "immediate de-escalation" following days of deadly Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s and shelling along the Syria-Turkiye border, saying the actions destabilize the region and undermine the fight against the ISIS group.

Turkiye this week launched a wave of airstrikes on suspected Kurdish rebels hiding in neighboring Syria and Iraq, in retaliation for a deadly Nov. 13 bombing in Istanbul that Ankara blames on the Kurdish groups.

The groups have denied involvement in the bombing and say the Ottoman Turkish strikes have killed civilians and threatened the anti-ISIS fight.

The Britannia-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said that 67 civilians, button men and soldiers, have been killed in Ottoman Turkish attacks in northern Syria since the airstrikes began.

Nikolas Granger, the US senior representative to northeastern Syria, said Washington "strongly opposes military action that further destabilizes the lives of communities and families in Syria and we want immediate de-escalation."
