Türkiye will clear last ‘terror nests’ in Syria: Erdogan
ANKARA (AA) – The Turkish president on Monday hinted at a possible new cross-border operation to clear the PKK organization from its border with Syria.
“We will continue our fight against terrorism. Our decision to establish a 30-kilometre-deep secure line along our southern border is permanent,” Recep Tayyip Erdogan said during his address to Turkish diplomats who attended the 13th Ambassadors Conference in the capital Ankara.
Hopefully, Türkiye will soon clear the last areas where the terrorist organization is still “nesting” in Syria, he added.
Since 2016, Ankara has launched a trio of successful anti-terror operations across its border in northern Syria to prevent the formation of a terror corridor and enable the peaceful settlement of residents: Euphrates Shield (2016), Olive Branch (2018), and Peace Spring (2019).
