2018-12-26
[ALMASDARNEWS] A fierce battle broke out between the Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels and Kurdish-led forces in the northern countryside of the Aleppo Governorate this afternoon.

The festivities reportedly erupted this afternoon after the Ottoman Turkish-backed Free Syrian Army
... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund...
 (FSA) attacked Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG) positions near the border-town of ’Azaz.

No casualties or advances have been reported by either side.

This is the second time in the last week that the Kurdish forces and Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels have clashed at this front in the northern countryside of Aleppo.

With the Ottoman Turkish military’s upcoming invasion of the eastern region of the Euphrates River Valley approaching, their allied forces on the ground have become increasingly hostile towards he Kurdish forces along the border.

#3  So just them letting the other side know they hate them, since no casualties yet. On the other hand, I have little doubt that unless it's Turkish forces themselves, anybody attacking the kurds are due for an airstrike.
