This is written on Thursday, Turkish media. It is reported that Al Thani expressed his support for Turkey during a telephone conversation last night with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

"Qatar supports all efforts of Turkey in the fight against all terrorist organizations," Al Thani said..

According to Al Thani, Turkey has every right to ensure its security, Trend reports..

Recall that on January 20, the Turkish Armed Forces jointly with the Free Syrian Army (SSA) launched a military operation called "Olive Branch" in the Syrian city of Afrin.

As Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said earlier, it is estimated that about 8-10 thousand terrorists of PYD and YPG are deployed in Africa.

The operation involves F-16 aircraft of the Turkish Air Force, which strike air strikes against PYD positions on the Syrian-Turkish border.

Turkey began to tighten military equipment to the Syrian border since last June. It was reported that the technology centers in the Turkish province of Kilis, which borders on the Syrian territory controlled by the YPG and PYD squads.

Recall that the units of the Armed Forces of Turkey on August 24, 2016 launched Operation Shield Euphrates against militants of the Islamic State and, with the support of the Syrian opposition, took the border town of Jarablus in the north of Syria, as well as the city of El Bab.
