The news article titled "'We are still at war': Syria's Kurds battle Türkiye months after Assad's fall," published by the UK-based broadcaster BBC, includes manipulative statements.
It seeks to establish a false perception that Türkiye is targeting ethnic groups in Syria.
The operations in Syria are not aimed at the civilian population or any ethnic group but are directly targeted at terrorist organisations.
While Türkiye prioritises the stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of Syria, it remains steadfast in its legitimate counter-terrorism efforts against groups such as the PKK/YPG and DAESH, which pose a threat to regional peace and security. The operations are conducted with the utmost sensitivity to avoid harm to civilians, and humanitarian aid efforts in the region continue unabated.
The efforts of the new Syrian administration, established following the demise of the Baath regime, to foster national unity and solidarity that encompass all segments of the country are firmly supported.
