ARK News: The Kremlin said on Monday it did not want to consider a possible clash between Russian and Turkish forces in Syria, adding that Moscow was in regular contact with Ankara, including at the military level.

The Kremlin's comment followed a Russian-brokered deal with the Syrian regime, which is currently limited to the deployment of Syrian regime forces along the border with Turkey.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that Moscow had already warned all parties to the Syrian conflict to avoid any action that could escalate the situation or damage the fragile political process.
