The Latest: Turkey says it'll jointly patrol Manbij with US
ABC News
12:05 p.m.

The Turkish foreign minister says Turkey and the United States have reached an agreement on a plan to jointly station Turkish and U.S. forces in the Syrian Kurdish-held town of Manbij.

Washington has not confirmed any such plan — and a small contingent of U.S. forces is already in Manbij.

Turkey is riled by U.S. support to the Syrian Kurdish militia known as the YPG, and accuses the U.S. of allegedly not fulfilling a promise to move the Syrian Kurdish fighters in Manbij east of the Euphrates River. Ankara has threatened to expand its current offensive in northern Syria to drive the Syrian Kurds out of Manbij.

This is a positive. One can't help but think a lot of folks probably died on the way to getting to this point.
