Report: U.S. Setting Up New Base in Northern Syria
(The War Zone) Howard Altman - U.S. forces are reportedly building a base in the northern Syrian Kurdish city of Kobani on the Turkish border. Several videos and images have emerged on social media claiming to show U.S. troops and equipment heading toward Kobani, reportedly to build a new international coalition base. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said U.S. forces "brought in a convoy of 50 trucks carrying cement blocks to SDF-controlled areas in northeastern Syria," referring to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces. Fighting continues in the area between SDF and the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army.
