Turkey's Erdogan rebukes US over Kurdish militia in Syrian city

Turkey's President Tayyip Erdogan said the United States has failed to comply with the timescale agreed for the withdrawal of Kurdish YPG militia from northern Syrian city of Manbij, the Hurriyet newspaper reported on Friday.

 

As agreed by the two NATO allies in June, Turkish and US forces are now carrying out patrols in Manbij to clear the area of YPG, a group that Turkey views as a terrorist organisation linked to Kurdish militants on its own soil.
