Turkey Warns Kurds Against 'Provocations' in Syria

Turkey has warned it will not tolerate “any provocation” from Kurdish groups in Syria, following a government military operation against Kurdish forces. Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya stated that Ankara is closely monitoring developments on the border and will take measures to protect the country's peace. The warning comes amid a period of heightened tension and against the backdrop of calls for demonstrations by the Kurdish community in Syria. Turkey insists on resolving regional issues through brotherhood and sound judgment, but states it is determined to confront any threat.
