Security source: Turkey will not resume its military offensive in the eastern Euphrates

Nov 26 2019

ARK News: Turkey is fully committed to agreements with Russia and the United States on northeastern Syria and will not resume its military offensive there, a security source said on Monday.

Ankara reached separate agreements with Moscow and Washington last month to remove the YPG from an area in northeastern Syria on the border with Turkey, which in turn halted its military offensive against Kurdish fighters.

But Ankara has previously said Russia and the United States had not abided by the deal and threatened to launch a new operation.
