Euphrates Shield ended. After land border was lost with Isis in Syria, Erdogan said PYD is next. Then Americans deployed 3 heavy armored vehicles with their flag on PYD side, on the Turkish troops-PYD contact line, then Turkey gave up and didnt dare. Sadly this is how it ended

Turkey forces clash with Tahrir al-Sham on Syria border

Turkish troops 'exchange heavy fire' with Syrian rebels near village of Kafr Lusin in Idlib province, monitor says.

Turkish forces have clashed with Hay'et Tahrir al-Sham fighters in Idlib province on the Syria-Turkey border, activists reported.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based war monitor, said on Sunday that the Turkish troops exchanged heavy fire with the rebel alliance near the village of Kafr Lusin.

Rami Abdulrahman, head of the Observatory, told Al Jazeera that the rebels were sending reinforcements to the border area.

"Turkish forces are not on Syrian soil yet," Abdulrahman said, adding that army was firing artillery shells across the border, while the rebel alliance attacked a Turkish military base.

On Saturday Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said Syrian rebels backed by Turkish forces would launch an operation in that area, which is mostly controlled by Hay'et Tahrir al-Sham.

It's pathetic how Turkey switched from supporting the rebels and fighting the dictator Assad into fighting rebels and thus indirectly helping the dictator Assad. Just goes to show that Muslim solidarity doesn't exist anymore, and that Erdogan is very far away from being a "pan-Islamist" and actually much closer to being a Turkish nationalist who only cares about Turkey's interests.

He tried the "fight the dictator" route but the Turks got bitchsmacked badly by the Kurds in Syria. There's long articles on that and how it pretty much stalled Turkey's geopolitical plans of becoming leaders of the middle east. Now they're Russian ground troops in Syria in the hopes of being able to beat the Kurds this way. Really pathetic when you consider their resources and size, there's a major disconnect between Turkey's strength on paper and the actual strength on the ground right now. Erdogan's purges must've fucked the system up badly.

Muslim solidarity has been lost at least since the Sunni-Shia split more than a millenium ago. It wasn't shattered yesterday...
