Turkish drones hit YPG/PKK with pinpoint accuracy

Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) struck YPG/PKK terrorists who plan to target civilian settlements in Turkey’s southern borders, the National Defense Ministry said on Monday.

The ministry said on Twitter the “baby killer” YPG/PKK terrorists were replenishing ammunition to target civilian settlements in Turkey before the country’s armed drones stepped into action.

In a video footage shared by the ministry, a van stands next to a tunnel used by terrorists to load ammunition which would later target civilians. Then, armed drones hit the van with pinpoint accuracy.

Turkey says ‘won’t stop’ until it reaches its goal in Syria

Turkey is “determined” to carry on the Operation Peace Spring in northern Syria to clear the YPG/PKK terrorists of its border and ensure the safe return of Syrian refugees, the senior presidential advisor has said.In an interview with Fox News Channel on Sunday, Gulnur Aybet responded to the claims that Turkish forces attacked U.S. soldiers during the country’s ongoing anti-terror operation and the misinformation about the operation.”We are very determined [in carrying on the operation] because we have two objectives. One is to clear our border from this terrorist group — the YPG, which is equivalent to the PKK — which is a terrorist organization as recognized by the U.S. and the EU”.”The second objective is actually to ensure the return of about one to two million Syrian refugees. We are already hosting 4 million of them in our country,” she added.Stating that YPG “grabbed a lot of land northeast of Syria unfortunately after the U.S. policy to arm them”, she said that arming a terrorist group to fight another was a very “ill-conceived” policy.”We’re very disappointed that you’re still working with the YPG outside the zone of our operation. We think that you should stop [this policy],” Aybet said.”They [Daesh] were allowed to grow under the watch of the YPG, who actually allowed thousands of them to escape from Raqqa,” she continued.”We didn’t do Raqqa unfortunately. We asked the Americans to do with us but they didn’t. They chose to do it with a terrorist group. I think the American public has a right to know that, don’t you think so?” the presidential advisor said.U.S. President Donald Trump was “right to want to bring home the U.S. troops because it’s unfair that they’re hostage to this very ill-begotten policy inherited from the previous admin, arming one terrorist group, the YPG, to fight another,” Aybet said.In response to the claims that Turkish forces attacked U.S. soldiers in northern Syria, she said: “We did not fire at American soldiers. That was a lie that was spun by the YPG. We were returning fire to terrorists firing at us from that region.””We were careful not to fire on the American observation posts there,” the advisor added.Turkey on Oct. 9 launched Operation Peace Spring to eliminate terrorists from northern Syria in order to secure Turkey’s borders, aid in the safe return of Syrian refugees, and ensure Syria’s territorial integrity.Ankara wants to clear northern Syria east of the Euphrates River of the terrorist PKK and its Syrian offshoot, the PYD/YPG.In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S., and the European Union — has been responsible for the deaths of 40,000 people, including women, children and infants.

Daesh detainees flee as YPG/PKK sets camp on fire

The YPG/PKK terror group on Sunday set a camp on fire in the Ayn Isa district in northern Syria, where they were holding captured Daesh detainees and their families.“Today at 11.00 a.m. local time [800GMT], senior members of the [terrorist] organization came to the camp and took all of the civilian employees out of the camp […] At around 13.30 p.m. [1000GMT], we saw that a fire started in the camp area and the smoke was increasing. When our friends went to see as to what was happening, they saw that offices were burning. If the detainees and families had set this fire on their own, our offices would not have been damaged. Our offices are separate from a place where Daesh people and their families were held. This fire was set by the [terror] group itself. They took us out before they set the fire and it is a proof that they initiated the fire,” a civil servant told Anadolu Agency on condition of anonymity due to security reasons.A civil servant added that thousands of Daesh terrorists, their families and other civilians — who were held in the region — were fleeing the camp area.Nearly 5,000 people, including 2,000 Daesh terrorists and their families, were held in the camp. Another 3,000 people were the civilians who had fled other Syrian districts due to the conflict.Ayn Isa is at about 35 kilometers (21.7 miles) from Turkey’s border.Turkey on Wednesday launched Operation Peace Spring in northern Syria to secure its borders by eliminating terrorists there and to ensure the safe return of Syrian refugees and Syria’s territorial integrity.Ankara plans to resettle two million Syrians in a 30-km-wide (19-miles) proposed safe zone in Syria, stretching from the Euphrates River to the Iraqi border, including Manbij.
