"Syrian army troops clashed with Turkish forces near the border town of Ras al Ain on Wednesday, Syrian state media reported, as Ankara said it reserved the right to launch another cross-border offensive against the Kurdish YPG militia.

The state media gave no details but Turkish-backed rebels said similar, intermittent clashes had occurred in recent days with Syrian troops south of the town, which Turkey seized from Syrian Kurdish-led forces earlier this month.

The report underscores the risk that violence in northeast Syria could rekindle after Ankara and Moscow struck a deal a week ago in which Russia agreed to shift the YPG at least 30 km (18.64 miles) south of the border by late on Tuesday…."

So much for the ceasefire, I guess.

Wonder how this will impact the S-400 deal, and the supposed operational implementation timeline, not to mention ongoing support and resupply?

That will be especially true, if Turkey uses these to down more Russian, and/or Syrian aircraft and helos.

I also wonder if Russian "technicians" are providing training, and/or even actually manning the SAM sites for Turkey.

Definitely interesting times in the region.

Very Interesting.
There is a conflict found in the Bible in Ezekiel 38 and 39. An invasion of Israel from Syria, by Iran, Russia, Turkey, with support from Libya and Sudan. The ancient names of these countries are used. Its not Armageddon or the end times battle. And the winner of the conflict is Israel.
Just Watching.

Yes JammerMan. Thoughts of that have been torturing me since Russian troops entered Syria.
