In a surprise move on 3oth November a large force of Kurdish SDF from Rojava crossed SAA territory and entered Aleppo in support of Syrian State forces and to defend the Kurdish neigbourhoods in Aleppo and the Shehba/Tel Rifaat enclave.

The Jihadi HTS and other Turkish funded forces seized most of Aleppo city of 2 million by default as the unprepared State forces fled..

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region – Thousands of Kurds, previously displaced from Afrin and trapped for 5 years , are stuck in their cars and on roads while trying to escape the Shahba area of Aleppo province as Turkey-backed militants ramp up their attacks in a bid to loot and take the area from Kurdish defense forces.. info-RUDAW

‘The 100,000 strong Syrian_Democratic_Forces, SDF revolutionary coalition, (which ironically is still backed by the United States after being adopted to defeat ISIS ) rushed thousands of heavily armed fighters from its areas of control in Rojava, through the government-held territory of Deir Haif, to briefly occupy Aleppo International Airport, then to the Kurdish-held district of Sheikh Maqsoud in the city and even to the desperately threatened enclave of Tel Rifaat/Shehba by the Turkish border .

On Sunday a General Mobilisation was declared in Rojava amid heavier Turkish backed attacks

The daring breakout from Rojava by the autonomous SDF Rojava multi-ethnic coalition of militias could even lead to military reconciliation with Damascus as Assad forces fled.

Afrin people about Tal Rifaat massacre: Whatever the occupier does, we will not yield

Tel Rifaat is a town and small enclave in the Shehba district which was left as a dumping ground for destitute refugees after Turkey’s illegal invasion, ethnic cleansing and resettlement with its Islamic proxies of the nearby Afrin area.

Tel Rifaat is isolated and right beside the Turkish Invasion HQ in Azaz. /see map. It is defended precariously under shelling by the local YPG/J-SDF and has various IDF refugee camps like Shebha still holding up to 180 thousand Kurds from NATO/ Turkey’s invasion and ethnic cleansing of nearby Afrin, totally abandoned by the responsible international West.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region 2/12/24- The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on Monday 2nd Ded 2024 said it is working with “relevant parties” in Syria to safely evacuate the people of the strategic town of Tal Rifaat in northern Aleppo province to northeast Syria (Rojava) amid intense attacks by Turkish-backed militants.

“Our forces have bravely defended our people in Aleppo, Tal Rifaat, and the Shahba region. We are coordinating with all relevant parties in Syria to ensure the safety of our people and facilitate their evacuation from Tal Rifaat and Shahba to our secure regions in northeastern Syria,” said a statement from Mazloum Abdi, commander-in-chief of the SDF.

While the Kurdish-led force is still in control of the Sheikh Maqsood and Ashrafiyeh neighborhoods in Aleppo city, its attempts to establish a corridor connecting Rojava with Aleppo and Tal Rifaat were “disrupted” by Turkish-backed militants, according to Abdi.- info-RUDAW

Having looted and destroyed Afrin the Islamic militias have agitated for years for permission to attack the Kurdish refugees in Shehba/Tel Rifaat.

Thousands of women refugees joined a demonstration in Tel Rifaat town in the Shehba Canton on Sunday 10th Nov 2019 in protest at the Turkish state’s invasion and genocidal practices in northern Syria. 40% of the population of Efrin (Afrin) now survive in this semi no-man’s land, defended by the multi-ethnic SDF of AANES, after expulsion by the Turkish invasion, plantation and Turkification of their homes and properties…. info-The Free

Finally on 28th Nov 2024 the Syrian State forces on the border fled. Next day Kurdish SDF reinforcements arrived to attempt a defense of the IDF refugees and begin evacuation. But the invasion order had already been given.

The aim of the Kurdish expedition is to protect the 2 Kurdish districts in Aleppo city from massacre by the Jihadi terrorists, as well as the refuge to the people of the Tel Rifaat enclave (see above).

While the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and its Russian support withdrew from the entire front, Kurdish forces maintain it where they have a presence.

Not only that, but the SDF has created a corridor that has allowed them to contact the two Kurdish neighbourhoods of Aleppo.

The Kurds also occupied the Aleppo International Airport, which State forced had also fled from, possibly along with Russian troops.

The current situation is developing on several fronts:
