The Turkish military decided to move the "observation post" away from the positions of the Syrian army in Idlib

14

It was reported that the Turkish military command has decided to move the so-called observation posts in Idlib away from the positions of the Syrian government forces. First of all, we are talking about an observation post in the area of ​​the Zawiya hills. A special group of military personnel from Turkey arrived in Idlib to select a new location for their post.

The group reportedly also considered the issue of securing sections of the M4 highway connecting Aleppo with Latakia. It is one of the key highways in Syria, and its control provides many advantages.



Today, there are several posts of the Turkish military in Idlib. In particular, we are talking about the posts south of the city of Jizr ash-Shugur. According to some reports, a group of military personnel arrived from Turkey inspected the territory in the Gab valley, studying the possible logistics of transferring the observation point and its further supply.

Recall that Turkey places such points and posts in Syria on the basis of trilateral agreements reached at one time by Russia, Turkey and Iran.

On the eve it became known that one of the Turkish observation posts actually became a "defendant" in military operations. It, already familiar to themselves, tried to use the pro-Turkish militants as a kind of shield after the retaliatory measures of the Syrian army caused by shelling of the territories controlled by the SAA. A day earlier, a Turkish convoy, which allegedly tried to deliver weapon and ammunition to the controlled armed formations, came under fire from a grenade launcher in the Maarat Misrin area.

      As they began to hammer the Turkish proxies, which are also hiding behind these posts, the Turks immediately got sick. They don't want to get hit back.

        The Turks drew conclusions and:
        - will align the line of contact (BMT and fire support on the flanks)
        - to expand the pre-field with the ensuing activity of the dusters on the Syrians.
        So, as in the joke "... no one goes anywhere."

    Of course, the Turks support all sorts of bastards, but they also get in the teeth with their help, even if by chance, and the Turks do not smile!

    .... Turkey places points and posts in Syria on the basis of trilateral agreements reached at one time by Russia, Turkey and Iran.

    It was not necessary to include Turkey, it borders on Syria and is interested in its plans of conquest for the border regions where Turkomans live and is hostile to Saddam, openly supporting the SDA. Instead of Turkey, it was necessary to include the CSTO countries (Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan). Now Turkey cannot be driven out of Syria.

      Shouldn't have included Turkey

      hi Unfortunately, Turkey had to be included. Otherwise, then the open databases would not have been stopped. And the "temporary truce" was at first more or less preserved.

        mal ....... Unfortunately, Turkey had to be included. Otherwise, then the open databases would not have been stopped.

        The whole task was reduced to joint patrolling along the border of Syria with Turkey. Under this pretext, Turkey climbed "with its feet on the Syrian table." It was necessary to patrol, either with Iran or with the CSTO countries. In addition, the agreement was signed in Kazakhstan, a member of the CSTO. Turkey was not allowed to enter Syria. Russia trusted her too much. hi

          Turkey then spoke from a position of strength. Perhaps this option was offered and the Turks did not go for it. And the fighting had to be stopped. I had to bargain.

            And what "bargained for"? .... Now Turkey is in Syria, Azerbaijan and Ukraine. This is not trading, but free surrender of their positions in the immediate vicinity of their borders. hi

      Well, that would not immediately "to the border" will probably not work ... The Turks are stubborn, self-confident, well armed. You have to press there, press here ... Let them step back, "save face."
