That's why I said "If". TSK needs to make a statement. Iraq's government is already blaming Turkey. This is nothing short of a massacre. Dozens killed. Those who play their death off as a joke are worse than PKK themselves.
Tomorrow is the 20th of July. The day when Operation Atilla was started to liberate Cyprus. Would be awesome if Turkey launched the operation tonight. Several convoys are already entering Syria as we speak.
Turkey brought in a huge convoy.
Turkey always wait till nightfall before moving troops, well-knowing that PKK, Assad and Russia is blind at night. However, syrians always film them and compromise opsec.
Erdogan's end-july trip to south america has been cancelled. Seems that there is a decisive battle looming in Syria. Rebels are preparing on all fronts incl. Idlib.
Turkey needs to finish the Syrian problem once and for all.
Tonight would be the perfect timing to launch the operation. 15th of July is an important date in Turkish history. It would also give TSK enough time to clear the Tel Rifat pocket before the meetings in Iran.
India always by overpriced stuff while their people go hungry. I think some people in their establishment are making good money on these shady deals. Also, I am not sure that Turkey would sell Akinci to India
Intense TSK artillery bombardment of the Tell Rifat pocket is ongoing. Operation started?
Noteworthy, that TSK is NOT currently intensely bombing elsewhere. Fire seems to be concentrated on the entirety of the Tell Rifat pocket.
TB3 and MIUS configuration is enough for Turkey. A naval Hurjet is waste of resources. Turkey needs to use its resources elsewhere, you have a lot of crucial projects already.
