Turkey has started to put up a wall between West and North Kurdistan after the border gate between Serêkaniyê and Ceylanpınar was taken by YPG (People's Defense Units) forces in mid July.

The photos of the wall between Mardin's Nusaybin district and the Qamişlo city in Rojava, published by ANHA news agency, show that the height of the wall has reached three meters and is reinforced with sandbags.

Turkey had taken no precautions in the mentioned border area while it was under the control of al-Qaeda linked gang groups whose militants have been brought from across the world to Syria via Turkey. The Turkish state also provided the armed groups with ammunition.

The wall is reportedly being put up on the grounds of smuggling activities in the region.

Deputy mayor of Nusaybin, Ayşe Gökkan, said that the wall was a disgrace witnessed in the 21st century.

YPG fighters had repulsed the al-Qaeda linked groups from the Qamişlo city in  two days after the armed gang groups attacked the city on 16 July.
