The Syrian army on Wednesday entered the symbolically important Kurdish-held town of Ayn al-Arab in northern Syria near Turkey, state news agency SANA reported. The entry comes as part of an agreement reached recently between the Kurdish forces and the Syrian army about handing over Kurdish-controlled areas to the Syrian army to counter the ongoing Turkish assault against Kurdish-controlled areas in northern Syria.
