If Turkey takes Raqqa, they won’t leave.
It’s good news that President Trump seems to be cutting them out.
South Front (an SAA-friendly media organisation) have this round-up of recent operations which we armchair generals may find useful.
The Raqqa offensive gets a mention, also the latest rename of Al Queda in Syria (to HTS) and the likely offensive to relieve Deir Ezzor from Palmyra.
Deir Ezzor is a critical war aim. It stands athwart any goal of splitting Syria to put a Qatar pipeline through to Europe.
This is why ISIS (and the former White House) were so keen to take it, even to the point of the USAF strafing SAA positions and acting as ISIS’s airforce.
