See "puhverstoon" kaardi peal paistab küll hõlmavat ala, kus toimub suurem osa elutegevusest ja mitte puhver-tsoon on suuresti kõrb, kus kedagi niikuinii pole.

„Hei, EL, ärka üles. Ma ütlen uuesti: kui te püüate nimetada meie operatsiooni seal sissetungiks, on meie ülesanne lihtne: me avame uksed ja saadame 3,6 miljonit migranti teie juurde,” ütles Erdoğan kõnes parlamendi ees, vahendab AFP.

A US base near Kobani was hit by Turkish airstrikes

US defence official state that the bombing took place close to a position still occupied by US forces

Turks bombed a prison where ISIS prisoners are held also in Kobane, with a US base very nearby. This is why US jets are in the area.

“U.S. troops in the vicinity of Kobani came under artillery fire from Turkish positions at approximately 9 p.m. local Oct. 11,” said a statement from Pentagon spokesperson Navy Capt. Brook DeWalt.

“The explosion occurred within a few hundred meters of a location outside the Security Mechanism zone and in an area known by the Turks to have U.S. forces present,” DeWalt added.

No U.S. troops were injured in the incident, and it did not warrant the withdrawal of U.S. forces in the area.

The Pentagon official told Newsweek the U.S. forces were “small numbers below company level” estimated to be between 15 and 100 troops. The U.S. forces said the artillery attack was so heavy that they considered firing back in self-defense.

Kui Türgi kaldub Kollastega päris lõpule minema, siis oleks vist naftaväljade hõivamine kasulikum ja lihtsam. Kui muidugi on vaja hõivata ja mitte Kollased ise ei palu Punastelt kaitset.
