SDF media head @farhad_shami "We held three meetings in Karakozak, Tishrin, and Manbij regarding a ceasefire. However, due to Turkey's insistence on continuing the war, the talks did not yield results... our resistance continues in Tishrin and Karakozak"
There are more than 50,000 ISIS prisoners being held in northeastern Syria.
If chaos in the region leads to an ISIS prison jailbreak, it would be a nightmare for America. The caliphate carried out and inspired some of the worst terrorist attacks the world has ever seen.
We cannot allow ISIS to return.
Kurdistan 24: Fighters from the Sultan Suleiman Shah group are collecting between 5,000 and 10,000 US dollars from each Kurdish family returning to villages in the Shiye district (from Shahba). Anyone who refuses to pay the tax is not allowed to return to their home.
Update
The US-led mediation efforts to declare a permanent truce in the Manbij and Kobani regions were unsuccessful due to Turkey's approach in dealing with the mediation efforts and its evasion to accept key points. These points included the transfer of remaining Manbij Military Council fighters and civilians wishing to move to safer areas within north and eastern Syria, as well as the resolution of the issue concerning the transfer of Suleiman Shah's remains to their former location.
Despite US efforts to stop the war, Turkey and its mercenary militias have continued to escalate over the last period.

Turkish media circulated this footage as checkpoints for its backed factions at the entrance of Manbij. However, it is evident that these individuals are ISIS members, as indicated by the badges on their shoulders. We must acknowledge the identity of our enemies who are supported and provided with aerial support by Turkey.
Video shows #SDF fighters being shelled in Qere Qozaq earlier today, saying "State of #Turkey is attacking non-stop with drones". The town is of strategical importance because of the bridge that connects #Manbij to east side of Euphrates river #DefendRojava#Syria
