The Syrian National Army , a militia formerly known as the Free Syrian Army with ties to Turkey, began attacking Kurdish forces in Aleppo province, Syria, this weekend after the jihadists of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham laid siege to the city of Aleppo, reportedly ousting the forces of dictator Bashar Assad.
The Syrian Civil War had stagnated for nearly a decade before the surprise attack on Thursday following the collapse of the Islamic State “caliphate” capital in Raqqa and Assad cementing his control of Aleppo. The Syrian Kurdish forces maintained control of much of the northeast of the country, which Kurds refer to as Rojava, with little objection from Damascus.
The Kurds have similarly accused Turkish forces and their proxies of ethnic cleansing and forced displacement in Rojava for years. In 2019, after Erdogan launched an invasion he branded “Operation Peace Spring,” the SDFthat Turkey “began to occupying Christian villages and trying to break into Tall Tamir predominantly Assyriens , threatened with annihilation.”
Kurdish control of Kurdish areas in Syria, Anadolu reported, created a “terrorist corridor” that presented a national security threat to Turkey. Anadolu notably did not explain why the SNA, which Turkey claims is a friendly but independent Syrian anti-Assad militia, would have an interest in preserving Turkey’s security.
