Tensions in Syria’s northern Idlib Province have brought yet more Turkish military vehicles across the border, a new convoy supposedly bound for observation posts that they are intended to shore up the defenses for.
The latest crossing was 25 more Turkish vehicles. The Syrian Observatory says 4,560 vehicles have entered Idlib since March, when Turkey and Russia reached a ceasefire. All are meant to control a handful of observation posts.
Turkey has a number of rebel allies in northern Syria, and those troops are no doubt there to support them against Syria as well, which is why Syria has opposed the presence of Turkish forces in their country.
Though Turkey hasn’t reported why they sent more troops right now, this comes after a UN Security Council vote which failed to get them multiple border crossings, and this may be a way to expressing displeasure.
If those numbers are correct, the convoy consists of one half of one percent of the vehicles that have entered the area over the last four months. Unless the vehicles are platforms for some previously absent weapon system, it’s pretty much the opposite of news.
The 2018 Astana agreement gave Turkey the right to have 14 observation posts in the DM zone in Idlib, that number has since March 2020 risen to 63 military posts, witch aids and supplies various terror groups Turkey funds and supports in Idlib.
There are up to 80K terrorists + their families in Idlib, Turkey also sends large numbers of terrorists from Idlib to Libya.
We need to overwhelm Assad’s weakened forces and Turkey is helping. If only we could get the old Isis gang back together and make a final push on Damascus and finally end the regime of the most despicable president any country ever had.
