Асад: Анкара продолжает поддерживать террористические группы

Президент Сирии Башар аль-Асад осудил турецкую военную операцию в северо-западном регионе страны Африн, заявив, что наступление является частью поддержки Анкарой террористических групп Такфири, действующих в арабской стране, охваченной конфликтами.

"Брутальная турецкая агрессия в сирийском городе Африне не может быть отделена от политики турецкого режима с первого дня кризиса в Сирии, который был в основном основан на поддержке терроризма и террористических организаций, какими бы ни были их имена", - заявил президент Сирии.

Ранее в воскресенье турецкой армии удалось продвинуться на 5 км вглубь Сирии и очистить заминированные районы. В Сирию вошли турецкие танковые подразделения, отряды специального назначения и пехота. Они оказывают огневую поддержку формированиям оппозиционной сирийскому правительству группировки "Сирийская свободная армия" (ССА), с которыми Турция координирует свои действия в Сирии. Бойцы ССА перешли в активную фазу наступления на позиции курдов в Африне также в воскресенье утром.

Во время продвижения никаких крупных столкновений не происходило.

Military parade to be held in Beijing as China and Russia reaffirm close ties

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
