Turkey Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu on Wednesday threatened to attack the Kurdish-led “People’s Protection Units” (YPG) in northeastern Aleppo unless they retreat east of the Euphrates River.

Also Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan claimed that his forces will target the YPG near Jarabulus.

The YPG and their allies currently control a large chunk of the Aleppo Governorate, including the entire Afrin Canton in the northwestern part of the province.
