Turkey blocked the Kurds from having a seat at the peace talks in Vienna this week. This planned operation could just be a big bargaining chip for those talks, or it could be that Russia/Syria/Kurds are looking to win on the ground, rather than through peace talks (or to grab as much ground as possible before a cease fire).
If the Kurds do take over this 50 mile wide corridor (Azaz to Jarabulus) and shut off the flow of Turkish support, ISIS is doomed in Syria, and Assad is saved.

More plans!! We need to hear more about the plans!!
I hope it’s not a secret.
And 0bama.
ISIS is losing all supply lines. Life in Raqqa is going to get very interesting before the Summer.
