US troops were also hit by the Turkish invasion of Syria



Turkish forces have been advancing for military action against the separatists in Syria, but an American military checkpoint was also mistakenly hit in the meantime.

According to the International News Agency, on the third day of the Turkish military action against the Kurds in Syria, the hostilities continued.

A US military spokesman deployed to Syria said in a statement that a US military outpost also came under attack by the Turkish army, but the US military did not have any casualties as a result of the shelling. According to the Pentagon, the Turkish army has also been alerted to the incident.

Turkish forces, on the other hand, have rejected the US claim that the US checkpoint was not their target during the Syrian offensive, but that the shelling was carried out on a military target of Kurdish fighters near the US outpost, where the Kurds were killed yesterday. The militants fired missiles at a Turkish police station.

The Turkish Foreign Minister had approached the Pentagon, citing the seriousness of the issue, and called for further strengthening of relations between the two countries so that such incidents could not take place and a confidence-building relationship was in place.

It should be noted that the Turkish President had demanded the withdrawal of US troops from Syria and the Turkish border in a telephonic conversation with the US President before the military operation in the Kurdish-dominated area in Syria, on which the US did not obstruct the Turkish military. Decided to withdraw his troops despite the displeasure of his former ally the Kurds.
