Russia and Turkey have conducted a joint patrol in Dirbêsiyê in northeastern Syria. Five armored cars of the Russian army and four vehicles of the Turkish occupation forces were accompanied on the drive by two Russian military helicopters. This is the 38th inspection tour by now.
Today's tour started again in the village of Şêrik about thirteen kilometers west of Dirbêsiyê and passed through several villages. The Turkish military then returned to Turkey via Şêrik, while the Russian column retreated to its base in Qamişlo.
