"The Syrian army has launched a military operation against Kurdish fighters in the Kurdish-controlled area of Deir Hafer, following violent clashes in Aleppo."
"The army issued warnings on Friday ahead of strikes targeting the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Deir Hafer, some 50 kilometres (30 miles) east of Aleppo, saying it would target areas that Kurdish forces were using as a launching point for their terrorist operations towards the city of Aleppo and its eastern countryside."
"SDF leader Mazloum Abdi said in response that his forces would withdraw to the east of the Euphrates River. In a post on X, Abdi said that based on calls from friendly countries and mediators we have decided to withdraw our forces tomorrow morning at 7 am (0400 GMT) east of Aleppo towards redeployment in areas east of the Euphrates."
