The US CENTCOM-linked media account of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Twitter repeated Friday reports about an alleged withdrawal of the Kuridsh People’s Protection Units (part of the SDF) to the eastern bank of Euphrates.
Spokesman of the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), Talal Silo, also confirmed withdrawal from the areas west of the Euphrates, including Jarablus and Manbij.

The repeated claims about withdrawal (and remaning) from the western bank of Euphrates could indicate some misunderstanding between the SDF/YPG command and YPG units at the battlefield. For sure, it is not good for future operations of the US-led coalition in Syria.
Meanwhile, today morning reports have said that clashes are continuing between the SDF and Turkish-backed militants south of Jarablus.
No misunderstanding at all. YPG has known all the time, that Manbij as a parther never did say going further to Al Bab, Jarablus. Manbij is taken as an important traffic center with only a handfull of kurds in it at all. The closest area around had(or had) a big minority rural population migt be a dot or two with majority.
And thats it slowing ISIS down very well helping themselves and the Assads. But inside Russsian/Assad bombing territory – and (too) close to the Turks.
YPG wouldnt accept those realistic facts – Not even accept that Al Bab is a much bigger cake – and without US/Nato support too.
Kurds paying now – not obly YPG.
you are a chronic liar. the kurds formed council for takimg both jarabulus and al bab.
some days ago i told you, america is not your friend and rojava will not allowed. today you can see the incarnation of my prophecy. kurds are stupid, arrogant loosers. and fascists, organizing ethnic cleaning.
And what ever. It s a koalition and kurds just cant tell US/Nato to give them airsupport from Incirlik or Iraq. Far out.
…The repeated claims about withdrawal (and remaning) from the western bank of Euphrates could indicate some misunderstanding between the SDF/YPG command and YPG units at the battlefield…
Yeah, the YPG units in the battlefield don’t yet quite grasp the idea that they have been totally screwed and backstabbed by the U.S. That’s the beauty of U.S. Goebbels-like propaganda and censorship: the little people Kurds can be tricked into dying for U.S. land-theft schemes for years before they figure out what the hell is happening to them!
