Turkish Offensive

Turkish military forces have started to attack in an offensive manor by seizing a town in Northern Syria yesterday. The Turkish Government had announced a push into Syria to create a buffer zone to house roughly 2 million Syrian refugees. This is a problem for both the U.S and other countries in that area. The Turkish are fighting against Kurdish led Syrian Democratic Forces who have been an american ally against ISIS. Since the Turkish offensive was announced, the SDF have moved resources and focus to that instead of ISIS which leads people to believe that could cause problems in the middle east.
