    According to local activists in northern Aleppo, the Syrian Democratic Forces will hand-over the villages of Tal Rifa’at, Mennagh, Kafr Karmeen, Deir Jammal, Harbek, ‘Ayn Daqnah, and Mur’anez to the Free Syrian Army.

    Initially, the Syrian Democratic Forces seized these villages from the Turkish-backed rebels; however, in some strange agreement recently, these sites will be handed back over.

    These villages are located just north of the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) positions in the Al-Zahra’a Valley, which puts the latter in a rough situation as they prepare for their large-scale offensive in the ‘Anadan Plain.

    La plaine d’Anadan se trouve à mi-chemin entre Alep et, en direction du nord-ouest, les très célèbres ruines de Saint-Siméon (sublime site mais aussi très stratégique). Les FDS sont des kurdes soutenus par les USA, tout comme l’ASL. On note juste que ces révolutionnaires ont l’amabilité de faire à peu près ce qui arrange leurs commanditaires.
