Beirut, Oct 7, 2019 (AFP) — Syria's Kurds warned Monday that a Turkish military invasion, believed to be imminent, would spark a major resurgence of the Islamic State jihadist group.

Such an operation would reverse years of successful Kurdish-led operations to defeat IS and allow some of its surviving leaders to come out of hiding, the Syrian Democratic Forces said in a statement.
