US sends more reinforcements to YPG in Syria

BALADI NEWS

The U.S. delivered logistical support with about 200 trucks from Iraq to regions in Syria occupied by the People's Protection Units (YPG), according to local sources.

The trucks passed the Semelka crossing on the Syria-Iraq border on Saturday night, said the source, who asked not to be named due to restrictions on speaking to the media.

On Sept. 9, the U.S. delivered 55 trucks of four-wheel drive vehicles, excavators and closed boxes to the Ayn Isa and Shaddadi regions occupied by the YPG group, while another 60 trucks passed the border to the occupied regions on Sept. 4.

The U.S.' Syria policy, especially its military support for YPG, has been a cause of tension between Ankara and Washington.

Ankara argues that one terrorist group cannot be used to fight another. Turkey sees the YPG as an extension of the PKK group which had involved in armed conflict with Turkey aiming to achieve an independent Kurdish state.
