US armoured vehicles arrive in northern Syria

(29 Apr 2017) US armoured vehicles were deployed in areas in northern Syria along the tense border with Turkey on Saturday, a few days after a Turkish airstrike that killed 20 US-backed Kurdish fighters, a Syrian war monitor and Kurdish activists said. More troops in armoured vehicles arrived on Saturday followed by a convoy of US-backed People's Protection Units, or YPG militia in the town of Qamishli close to the Turkish border. The deployment followed Turkish airstrikes on Wednesday which wounded 18 members of the YPG,. The airstrikes in Syria were criticised by both the US and Russia. The YPG is a close US ally in the fight against the Islamic State group but is seen by Ankara as a terrorist group because of its ties to Turkey's Kurdish rebels.
