After the war is over turkey should build some type of military fortification at the old location and put the tomb inside so that this type of thing never happens again. The tomb was completely vulnerable to attack and could easily be besieged, its so easy to isolate because its on a tiny peninsula like thing. The troops there would have no way to effectively respond to an attack.
I have some mixed opinions on this decision, on one side its a retreat but on the other side its a very smart move. The tomb was just another way to get Turkey more involved in Syria if it were to be attacked and now it can't be attacked. No soldiers will be in danger anymore. IDK its a tough thing to have an opinion on because the location it was previously at isn't even the original location so that raises the question as to whether or not the location is important or is a tiny piece of land that has to be located in syria more important?

PYD militants knew and most probably assisted Turkey for the evacuation with either information or by assuring Turkey that they would not do anything retarded. As you may already know, head of PYD Salih Muslim was in Ankara only three days ago. If that wasn't the case those militants could not approach that much to the construction site with their weapons like that. I'm 100% sure that there was a cooperation which is being denied by the Turkish government and being exploited by the Kurdish side with such pictures and headlines like "TSK asked our permission".
