some of its items were disclosed, while some other items remained ambiguous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 21.3333px;\">According to the security mechanism, the area between Sere-Kaniye (Ras al-Ein) and Gire Spi (Tal Abyad) was divided into six sectors with a length of 88 km and a depth ranging between 5 to 14km; to conduct direct US-Turkish patrols, under an agreement between the United States, Turkey and the SDF.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 21.3333px;\">The Security Mechanism also indicated that this 14 km depth inside Syrian territories includes uninhabited areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 21.3333px;\">The area would be run by local military councils in Gire Spi and Sere-Kaniye replacing People\u2019s Protection Units (YPG), which had already started filling a number of their tunnels fortifications on the bordering areas with Turkey.<\/span><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sere-Kaniye &#8211;
