As clashes between Turkey and the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) continue, US armored vehicles are reported to be deploying to areas in northern Syria.

Footage posted online by Syrian activists showed a convoy of US armored vehicles traveling on a rural road in the village of Darbasiyah.

The US deployment came a few days after the Turkish military carried out airstrikes on Tuesday on Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) militants near Iraq’s Sinjar Mountains and in northeastern Syria.

Clashes started between the YPG and the Turkish military after the former carried out a mortar attack targeting two Turkish military outposts in the southern province of Hatay on the Syrian border.
