The ministry added that six Turkish armored vehicles also participated in patrols, adding that the patrols are being supported by unmanned aerial vehicles.

Syria condemned the joint US-Turkish patrols in border strip in northeast Syria and says it is ‘flagrant violation’ of country’s sovereignty, according to an official statement.

“This step is an aggression and is aimed at prolonging the crisis in Syria,” the Syrian foreign ministry said in a statement.

“If Turkey, US don’t find common ground, Ankara will be obliged to create a safe zone on its own,” Akar said.

Akar reiterated once again that Ankara will not allow a terror corridor south of Turkey.

He also noted that Turkey is the only competent and efficient power to provide control over the planned safe zone in northern Syria.
