Beirut, Dec 28, 2018 (AFP) — Syria's Kurds called on government troops on Friday to deploy alongside their own forces in the north to help counter a threatened Turkish offensive.
The People's Protection Units (YPG), the main Kurdish militia in Syria, made its appeal following a shock announcement by its US ally last week of a full troop withdrawal from Syria.
