White House Approves Directly Supplying Weapons to Kurdish YPG in Syria
The move is likely to infuriate U.S. ally Turkey, which considers the YPG a terrorist group.
(MEE) U.S. President Donald Trump has approved the supplying of weapons to Kurdish YPG forces battling the Islamic State group in Syria, a US official said Tuesday.
The funding “to provide support to the YPG has been approved,” the official said on condition of anonymity.
