Deadly clashes have erupted in Syria’s northern city of Aleppo between the troops of the Damascus government and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), with the two sides trading blame for the incident. The Syrian Interior Ministry has pinned the blame for the incident on the SDF, claiming fighters with the group “committed an act of treachery” against the Damascus-controlled security forces. The SDF has strongly rejected the allegations, claiming the militia have long “handed over their positions to the Internal Security Forces in accordance with the April 1 agreement.” The group blamed the incident on the “fragmented factions affiliated with the Damascus government,” accusing them of “besieging” the neighborhoods for at least four months.
