Turkey says siege of Afrin has begun
Turkish president Tayyip Erdogan claimed Friday night that his army had come within 6km of Afrin town and placed its estimated million Kurdish inhabitants under siege. DEBKAfile’s military sources say he was exaggerating. The Turkish army is not yet there. It has taken from Kurdish forces the town of Jinderes, 20km from Afrin town, and a few Turkish units are 4-6km away, but there is no siege on the town. In Washington, talks between US and Turkish teams of diplomats for stalling the Turkish offensive against the Kurds in Afrin wound down Friday without an accord.
“He is exag.” Hahah
Poor debka
TA is already in Afrin. Terorists left their positions and ran.
The Turkish army will complete the mission. The FSA(Free Syrian Army) who are also on the front lines fighting with Turkey are mostly from this area. They are fighting so successfully as it is their home land. The big looser is US and Europe on this war. How they wished to surround Turkey with the ax of terror. Times have changed, countries have changed. No more to imperialist rule. Turkey has its own technology. The drones probably decided the major victory on this affair.
The Turkish leaders are preparing for war with Israel…it is their destination and goal. Afrin is just a small stepping stone for them. Their designs are much larger. They wish to partner with Iran, and make every effort to destroy Israel, because Turkey has become a nation of radical Islam the same as Iran.
They will lose.
We, the world, already know that amageddon will begin with an attack from Israel s northern border. Its OK, bc America will wipe that force off the face of the earth, without regard for how “brave” or “great” the attacking soldiers from Turkey, Russia, Syria and iran are. The EAGLE will wipe them out…
