Heavy fighting has continued despite a cease-fire deal in northern Syria after Turkey vowed to clear SDF fighters from a 20-mile-deep 'safe zone.' According to the United Nations, more than 200,000 people have been displaced since the invasion last month and many fear an approaching winter.
Heavy fighting has continued despite a cease-fire deal in northern Syria after Turkey vowed to clear Syrian Democratic Forces from a 20-mile-deep "safe zone" between the border cities of Tal Abyad and Ras al-Ayn.
"They will destroy everything here like in other villages," he said of the TFSA. His was the last inhabited village before the frontline and the latest border of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria. Residents expected the village to fall, maybe within the week. After that, the town of Tal Tamr, where thousands more reside, would be in the TFSA's crosshairs.
Those that flee the fighting have few places to turn. Most don't have the money to reach camps in northern Iraq. Instead, they head away from the front, looking for buildings and homes abandoned during past fighting with IS, to prepare for the approaching harsh winter. The village of Am Alkef in northern Syria sits largely abandoned on November 7, 2019. An advancing Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army has displaced most of the residents in the countryside of Tal Tamr.The villagers said the water has made some sick. One quickly fetched his 10-month-old baby, displaying a skin rash on her face he thinks was caused by the dirty water.
