The Turkish military conducted some 40 artillery strikes on the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG), that operate under the brand of “Syrian Democratic Forces”, north of the city of Manbij. Separately, Turkish military continued to shell ISIS positions near the ISIS-controlled border town of Jarablus in a move that experts describe as pretext for a cross-border attack of Turkish-backed militants on this strategic town.
We remind on August 22, the YPG seized some villages south of Manbij.
In the area of Aleppo city, Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki announced creation of a humanitarian corridor to the Sheikh Maqsood neigborhood controlled by the YPG. The move came amid the deteorations of the relations between the YPG and the Syrian government.

Meanwhile, the situation remains unclear in the city of Hasakah where the Kurdish forces are clashing with the pro-government militias. On August 22, there were reports that the sides at least set up a ceasefire agreement. However, on August 23, the clashes continued in some parts of the city.
Situation? A Russian quagmire of ineptitude and unprofessionalism, highlighted by acts of geonocidal barbarity. The Russian military sucks, but it is brutal.
I think you mean the US Army. Stuck in Afghanistan for 15 years now!
