Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the country’s military operation in northwest Syria‘s Idlib province was largely completed
Speaking in parliament to members of his ruling AK Party, Erdogan suggested that Turkish troops could now target Syria's border region of Afrin, which is controlled by Syrian Kurdish groups.
"We have the issue of Afrin ahead of us," Erdogan said. "We cannot make any concessions. As we have said before, we may arrive suddenly one night; we may hit (them) suddenly one night, "NYDailyNews reported.
Turkey sent troops into Syria earlier this month to set up "observation posts" in the border province that is dominated by al-Qaida linked militants as part of a deal reached with Russia and Iran.
