Secretary General of the United Nations (UN), Antonio Guterres expressed deep concern over the clashes between the Turkish and Syrian government forces in northwest Syria. The UN also called for the violence to stop. Reported by Anadolu Agency on Wednesday (5/2), Guterres believes that the military is not a solution to the conflict in Syria. This was conveyed by Guterres following the clashes that took place on Monday (3/2). The clashes left eight Turkish military personnel killed by Syrian government forces supported by Russia. About 20 military personnel were killed in gunfire between Turkish troops and Bashar al-Assad's forces. This increased tensions between Ankara and Moscow, which supported opposing parties in the war-torn Idlib rebel enclave. (Rep-Sg/edt /Ahm)
