Turkey continues sending military convoys to Syrian soil
ALEPPO, Syria (North Press) – On Monday at dawn, a Turkish military convoy entered to the city of al-Bab east of Aleppo through al-Rai crossing north of the governorate.
The convoy stopped in Jabal Aqeel region to load military equipment, personnel carriers, and ammunition. It was accompanied by military vehicles belonging to the Turkish-backed Sultan Murad faction, according to a source from the opposition.
This is taking place despite efforts paid towards thawing ties between Syria and Turkey following a meeting in Moscow in late December last year that brought together ministers of defense of Syria, Russia and Turkey.
Amidst Turkey’s persistent endeavors to grant a green light for a new military operation inside Syria, it continues to push more military convoys to the region.
Since May 2022, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has continued threatening to launch a new military operation against north Syria, specifying his targets in Manbij, Tel Rifaat and Kobani.
Late in December of 2022, Turkey sent military reinforcements to bases deploy in Idlib, northwest Syria.
