A fighting reportedly erupted between the Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) and YPG militants deployed in Syrian territory neighbouring Turkey's southeastern province Şanlıurfa last night (October 30).
Turkey is doing its best to fulfil difficult obligations on establishing a demilitarised zone in Idlib, and Russia does not see a threat the agreement would fail, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s chief advisor İlnur Çevik claimed that Turkey’s artillery fire on YPG fronts in the east of Euphrates is a ‘friendly message to the US’.
Jeffrey Jeremiah, the state clerk of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of America, which Brunson is affiliated with, spoke exclusively to Diken about his case.
We, our friends in academia, are leaving our 9, 13, 15 square meter humble offices without having committed any injustice to any student knowingly or willingly. After all those years in which we strived to do our best, we’re leaving with our heads held high, with a clear conscience.

As across much of the globe Donald Trump’s stunning victory is eliciting mixed responses in Turkey. Pro-government commentators believe Trump will be better...
Media coverage of the area known as Rojava has been broadly favourable. The main Syrian Kurdish militia, the People’s Protection Units or YPG has attracted sympathy for its battle against the Islamic State. But foreign journalists usually do not spend more than a week or two in the region. And the steady blast of pro-YPG propaganda dressed up as news can blur the picture.
