Syrian Kurds call Iraqi brothers to the flag against Turkey

The Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union (PYD) leader, Salih Muslim, Friday called on Iraqi Kurds to cross the border and fight with their YPG militia against the invading Turkish army in northern Syria. The PYD leader issued his appeal to Irbil from Brussels where he told reporters he had evidence of links between the Erdogan government in Ankara and the Islamic state terrorists.
