The Fight against PKK Terrorism

[mete]

True.
It seems that turkish army is modernised like some of its cities : Fast but without rigor.

There is a lot of flood accident in some turkish cities and urban planning aberrations are numerous. While the turkish army got a lot of new gears and vehicules, its infrastructures are poor : Poisonning accidents are frequent and the unfortunate explosion in that base yesterday.
It also lack real combat capability : nearly all the fight that are conduct in Syria, Irak and in Anatolia are made by the same commandos/military police and some special forces. During Al Bab and Afrin operation all the infantry task were made by something like ~1000 commandos and their role is not to capture and hold ground, but to securise areas and pierce lines. If Turkey wants a professional army, it needs to create much more combat capable infantry units.

It's far better than in 2016 tho. That year was disastrous for Turkey, mainly because of the incompetence of the admnistration and the deep state infightings.

You just do not engage in hybrid warfare in urban areas with infantry. Things changed since WW2. It is like sending high school teachers into a burning building as firefighters. This is not the job of infantry. Actually I think our military is doing the right thing. We need highly trained, experienced and specialised relatively small units instead of units not having this weith high numbers. You can not have both if you are not in a gigantic war like europe had 75 years ago for years.

Food poisoning is based on really bad decicions of politicians which decided to supply military from civillian sources. This resulted with some bastards who has political ties supplying bad food with low cost to soldiers. One day it will change; I am sure about that. And one day those bastards will pay the price.

Saudi-UAE-Kurdish military meeting in northern Syria

Saudi and Emirati military advisers have in recent months met with officials of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), considered by Turkey as terrorist organisations, at the US base in north-east Syria.

There are fears of Arab-Turkish confrontations that will be the first of their kind on Syrian soil.

Just to settle a minor mistake. The Turkish State doesn't consider KDP a terrorist organization.
