Turkey will begin a massive invasion of Rojava starting as early as this week. Last Monday Turkish President Erdogan said that the army is “taking steps regarding the missing parts of the work we started to create a safe zone at a depth of 30 kilometers along with our southern borders.” He is referring to Turkey's last major operation in 2019 in which the Turkish Army took over large swaths of territory.
The military operation will likely be launched during a meeting of Turkey's National Security Council (MKG) on Thursday.
Turkey's pending invasion of Rojava has implications for Kurds and Yazidis here in Sinjar. Last April, when the Iraqi Army initiated an attack on Sinjar defense forces, it was done in coordination with Turkey's invasion of the Zap and Metina regions of Northern Iraq. The townspeople of Sinjar fear that the Iraqi Army may be timing their military operations with Turkey once again, which would mean possible attacks on the Sinjar defenses. The YBS defense forces of Sinjar also report heightened patrols of Turkish drones throughout this region.

Episode 5; So You Want to Volunteer for the Yazidi or Kurdish Forces?
Volunteer fighters of YBS International (Bahoz Sores [Commander] and Hunesh Ameriki) came to talk with Tahseen and me about the recent defections from YBS, and at the same time, we learn a lot about what it's like to be an American or European volunteer fighting alongside the Yazidis and the Kurds.
