Syrian President Bashar al -Assad did not exclude direct clashes between the Syrian and Turkish troops in the republic under a number of conditions, according to RT Arabic.
According to Assad, first of all, readiness to resist his people is required. It is primarily about the territories where the Syrian army is already standing. The second – military conditions are needed that will allow the soldiers of the two countries to fight directly.
Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced the beginning of the anti -terrorist operation at the borders of his state.
