Asayish clarified in a statement that it formed the military force in Raqqa from
Arabs to run al-Raqqa city and the militia’s controlled villages. The force will work as security force similar to the model they adopted in Manbij.
This is considered a confrontation to Turkey which opposes any participation of (PYD), the Syrian branch of (PKK) classified as terrorist organization. Turkey works to stop (PYD) from gaining more power north of Syria. Turkey Minister of Foreign Affair Mevlut Cavusoglu demanded few days ago from regional countries and members in the International Coalition to send special forces to Raqqa city to recapture it from ISIS.
