    The #US Army now sees itself as peacekeeping forces in #Syria, "deterring violence between Turkish, Russian and other forces".

    Still not everything solved ...

    "Erdogan to visit Russia Friday for high-level talks"
    Topic: "particularly #Syria"

    Not the @UN, not #Geneva & not #Syrians decide about the future of their country.
    But #Trump's, #Putin's & #Erdogan's chiefs of staff.

    Even Russian state news says, #Assad fights "the opposition" in #EastGhouta...thus breaking the #Astana "ceasefire".
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9iZZN3cnx0#…

    Just another day of intense #AssadPutin terror attacks across the free parts of #Daraa city.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2wygCCABTQ#…

    Same as in #Aleppo.
    99% of the rebels signed the #Astana ceasefire agreement.
    #Assad (& #Putin) simply focus on the last 1% to fight all

    US-led #YPG forces reached the #Euphrates, cutting the main #Raqqa - #DeirEzzor road.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_AS...ture=youtu.be#

    And some (justified) trolling.
    Sorry, @OIRSpox John!

    Ah...appears the US is lying again..they are getting as bad as Trump....

    EVER NOTICE the YPG flag is that of the PKK 1978 flag complete with Communist red star...

    Turkey has shut down the US supported Mercy Corps, one of the largest providers of humanitarian aid in northern Syria.

    CrowBat....following info is actually interesting for a number of reasons....

    Today a Pakistani with German residence permit goes on trial for spying for the Iranian IRGC....

    He spent the last year collecting attack data on Israeli and Jewish points of interest for IRGC attacks in Germany.....

    German government source is not telling me anything on the IRGC other than it was a "special unit" inside IRGC that Germany has been tracking their activities for years....that is how they stumbled onto him during their surveillance ops....

    Any idea what the "IRGC special unit" could be????

    Kremlin might be not interested in fighting ISIS because it could lead to new terrorism outbreak in #Chechnya

    BREAKING
    @CJTFOIR-backed #MMC claims destruction of #EuphratesShield tank near Bughaz, west of #Manbij.
    So much for the "de-escalation".

    Better video of the attack.
    Vehicle clearly hit.
    Strike by #SDF/#MMC according to the logo presented in the video.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmYbOWaSJOQ#

    Reread again.
    It stated "claims tank" and "vehicle hit".

    Notice the comments concerning Manbij by the spokesperson for DoS yesterday.........

    QUESTION: Mark, what’s the U.S. position towards the situation in Manbij in Syria? The American flag is flying there, there are more American troops in the area, and Turkey is threatening to enter the city, and the regime is preparing to enter – to go through the city too.
    MR TONER: Sure. Well, I believe the Pentagon has already spoken to this in some tactical detail, and I would also – I would encourage you to speak to them directly about these kinds of movements on the ground. I think, broadly speaking, of course it’s a very complex environment around the area east of al-Bab. It’s a place where multiple forces, frankly, have converged – all with the intent to drive out ISIS. But I think when you’ve got multiple forces in such a small, confined space, we want to avoid any unnecessary or unintended escalation in what is already a very tense and dynamic situation.
    So we are sending a message to all forces that are there on the ground to remain focused on the counter-ISIS fight and concentrate their efforts on defeating ISIS and not towards other objectives that may detract from the coalition’s ongoing campaign. So we want to keep the focus on the stated intent to destroy ISIS. The coalition is going to continue work in close coordination with allies and partner forces, again, with the focus on defeating what is a common enemy, which is ISIS.
    QUESTION: A follow-up on --
    QUESTION: One more on this, Mark.
    MR TONER: One more, okay. Yeah.
    QUESTION: U.S., Russia, and Turkish chief of staffs have met in Antalya today, and they will continue meeting. Is there a new coordination between the U.S. and Russia on the fight against ISIS and on the situation in Syria?
    MR TONER: You’re talking about a meeting today – not sure what the date was – but between Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dunford, and he met with the chief of Russian general staff – the Russian general staff, as well as chief of the Turkish general staff. The purpose of the meeting, as I understand it, is to enhance senior-level military communications and improve operational de-confliction of our respective military operations in Syria. I’d refer you to DOD for any details, but my understanding of this is that it’s – it remains focused on de-conflicting.

    US/Russian/SDF/Assad alliance against the #FSA at #Manbij now clear—major domestic & international actors standing against the revolution

    AND against Turkish aims inside Syria....Turkey a NATO member fighting a 40 year war with Kurdish PKK....

    AND Trump talks about fighting terrorism....

    Regime forces arrive in W. Manbij, clashes ongoing b/w SDF & Turkish backed rebels -
