Erdogan threatens 'imminent' Turkish operation in Syria

ISTANBUL (AFP) - President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday threatened to launch an operation in Syria’s Idlib region by the end of the month if Damascus fails to withdraw behind Turkish military positions.

"An operation in Idlib is imminent," Erdogan told his party’s lawmakers in parliament. "We are counting down, we are making our final warnings".
