The Syrian armed opposition in the Euphrates Shield Operation area has sent military reinforcements to the front line along with YPG-held area in eastern Syria, according to an opposition official on Monday.
The Hamza Division, which is a member of the Turkey-backed Free Syria Army (FSA), dispatched fighters and armored vehicles to the border line between YPG/PKK-occupied areas and regime-held areas, Abu Yazan, an FSA commanding officer, told Anadolu Agency.
He said the troops will take up important tasks during a highly anticipated Turkish military operation in the northern city of Manbij.
“Our units headed out to contact regions occupied by YPG terrorists,” Yazan said.
He warned civilians to stay away from YPG/PKK occupied areas.
“We will liberate Manbij by sweeping away terrorists from the area,” he said.
