The SDF (YPG/PKK) insisted on its demands for integration and integration into the army as a bloc within three years (they had requested a three-year extension of the agreement, which expires on August 30th).

The SDF initially refused to surrender Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor.

Syrian and Turkish officials categorically rejected any postponement.

The government blamed Mazloum Abdi for the agreement's failure before the American and French representatives.

Mazloum Abdi requested a timeframe to meet with Qandil leaders regarding the surrender of Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor, and the government subsequently rejected any such request.


According to local Syrian sources, the US side gave the SDF only two weeks, rather than the three-year period they had requested.

According to the sources, the Hasakah region remains a point of contention, and negotiations on this issue will continue today and tomorrow.
We all know how this is gonna end
The SDF wouldnt even dare to think to delay any sort of agreements unless some sort of guarantees were provided by both Israel and the US

Moreover, videos emerging from last 4 months already show the PKK building new tunnel and trench systems within Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor; Furthermore, Raqqa is one of the most populous cities within SDF-controlled areas which means loss of access to human resources, taxes, soldiers, in addition to the sole fact that both Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor are close to many oil/gas fields in Syria. Therefore, the notion that that the SDF will abandon such areas is ridiculous

There needs to be a battalion just dedicated to tunnel warfare inside TSK.

US AMBASSADOR TO TURKEY BARRACK'S RESPONSES TO CNN TURK:

“WE DO NOT OWE THE SDF TO ESTABLISH AN INDEPENDENT STATE”

•The SDF, as you call it, is the YPG. The YPG is a derivative of the PKK.

•There's a feeling among Americans: “We were partners with the SDF; we owe them a debt.”

•The real question is: What do we owe them?

•We don't owe them the establishment of an independent government within a state. We owe them a reasonable path to a new government.

•There can't be a structure where separate Druze forces dress as Druze, Alevi forces dress as Alevi, and Kurdish forces dress as Kurds, and so on. There will be a single structure.

Israel is literally bombing syrian forces. I wonder, when Türkiye will respond? I mean by deploying forces or so, at least as a deterrence. Or is this just amateur thinking on my part? Can someone more knowledgeable give a better insight?

Respond with what exactly? Turkey couldn't even conduct similar strikes on the israeli proxy groups within Syria if it wanted to, otherwise the West would start crying about "Turkey is bombing le innocent, peaceful, freedom-loving, only democracy in the region, poor oppressed minority-Druze". AKP is too busy releasing PKK terrorists anyway.

The Druze Area is geographicly close to Israel and several hundret Kilometers away from Turkey. Syria for itself lack on a strong and credible Army, most of the Equipment is outdated. Our Air Defence and strategic Strike Capabillity is in a Phase of built up. We need to built up large Stocks of LACM, ALCM, ALBM and ballistic Missiles with Ranges > 500 km and more than 1000 km. We have a Number of multirole Fighters like the F-16 and arround 20 F-4E 2020 in Service, but we lack on a real Air Superiority Plattform.

For starters, because there are no Israeli proxy groups in Syria.

Israeli airstrikes are becoming increasingly notorious
If these airstrikes continue without consequences, sooner or later the Syrian people will rise against the HTS-led government
A government that cant protect its people or army is of no use to its people

Just like the Kurds these Druze are nothing more than a bunch of trouble makers.

Hows that "tolerance" working out.

According to reports, Initially, The HTS-led government have managed to take Suwaydah city centre in the early morning; however, due to intense Israeli bombing, the advance infantry units of the Syrian army has been wiped out and the Israeli-backed radical Druze militias have recaptured all the critical areas in the city center

Moreover, at the same time the Syrian govt is fighting Israeli-backed Druze militias, the PKK/SDF has started a new attack against the HTS. In other words, the HTS is now being attacked on two fronts without any protection and no one knows what on earth is Turkey bloody doing rn

The current situation is not good at all and the Turkey-backed govt may lose a lot if it fails to take Suwaydah as it will be a sign that Turkey has no say in Syria and the true decision-makers are the Israelis. The Israelis in turn will use that to strengthen sectarian hatred between the Druze, Sunni, Shia, and Kurds and ensure that even with Assad's departue, Syria will remain a hell on earth
