Kurdish-led SDF deploys massive force to northern Raqqa in preparation for Turkish offensive
2019-10-06
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have allegedly deployed a massive force in northern al-Raqqa this weekend after reports about a new Ottoman Turkish military operation east of the Euphrates.

According to the reports, which have not been confirmed by al-Masdar, the Syrian Democratic Forces deployed a large number of fighters to the northern al-Raqqa town of Tal Abyad, which is located along the Ottoman Turkish border.

Earlier today, Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
repeated his accusations that the U.S. Coalition had failed to live up to their promises regarding the implementation of the safe zone area in the northern region of Syria.

Erdogan reiterated his pledge to launch a large-scale operation to eliminate the Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG) and Syrian Democratic Forces from the Ottoman Turkish border.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
considers the SDF and YPG forces to be terrorist entities that offshoots of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), a group that was at war with the Ottoman Turkish military for several years.
