Turkey-Russia joint patrols start Friday
Turkish-Russian joint patrols will start in Syria on Friday, Turkey’s president said yesterday, after the Kremlin said Syrian Kurdish fighters had withdrawn under a deal between Ankara and Moscow. Erdogan said Russian authorities informed Ankara that some 34,000 members of the “terror group” have withdrawn -- together with 3,260 pieces of heavy weaponry -- from a zone running 30 kilometres from the Turkish-Syrian border.
