Since US President Donald Trump decided that the United States should withdraw from northern Syria in early October, Syria has become a larger battlefield than before, despite the country having been at war since 2011.

Following the departure of the United States, Turkey entered the area to establish what the President of Turkey calls a safe zone. As a result of Turkey's offensive, 200,000 people fled, according to the AP News Agency.

When the US withdrew from Syria, Russia took the opportunity to strengthen its positions in the country, and after a meeting between Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russia's President Vladimir Putin, the countries agreed that both countries should jointly patrol northern Syria.

Turkey threatens to resume offensive

The ceasefire is considered to hold in large part, but there are accusations from both sides that the ceasefire is broken. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened to resume the offensive on Tuesday, consistently calling Kurdish-led forces terrorists.

- We know that the terrorists are inside the security zone we have set up on both sides. They cannot fool us by saying that we have cleared these areas of terrorists, he said in a speech on Tuesday.

According to CNN, which quotes figures from the UN, around 400,000 people have been killed in Syria since the war began in 2011.
