President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday that Turkey's planned military operation against Kurdish militia forces in Syria's Afrin region will be supported by Syrian rebel fighters.

(Reuters) -- His comment to reporters in parliament was the latest in a series of warnings about an imminent operation targeting Afrin after the U.S.-led coalition said it was working with Kurdish-led forces to set up a new 30,000-strong border force in Syria.
