Turkish and U.S. troops continued their patrols on Tuesday in northern Syrian city Manbij, as part of a deal to rid the area of the YPG group.

In a statement, the Turkish General Staff said forces of both countries conducted 47th round of separate coordinated patrols in the region between areas liberated by Turkey's Operation Euphrates Shield and Manbij.

Patrols by Turkish and U.S. troops in the region began on June 18.

The Manbij deal between Turkey and the U.S. focuses on the withdrawal of the PKK-affiliated YPG terror group from the city in order to stabilize the region.
