From Reuters:
Damascus says believes some Turkish forces entered Syria
The Syrian government says Turkish forces were believed to be among 100 gunmen it said entered Syria on Saturday accompanied by 12 pick-up trucks mounted with heavy machine guns, in an ongoing supply operation to insurgents fighting Damascus.
"The operation of supplying ammunition and weapons is continuing via the Bab al-Salama crossing to the Syrian area of Azaz," the Syrian foreign ministry said in a letter to the U.N. Security Council published by state news agency SANA.
It said the pick-up trucks were "accompanied by around 100 gunmen some of whom are believed to be Turkish forces and Turkish mercenaries".
The same letter also criticised Turkey for shelling areas of northern Syria. Azaz is north of Aleppo near the Turkish border.
The Saudis could shut this down in five minutes but they are not. Not many people know that it is Saudi money that is funding the building of tens of thousands of mosques around the world and the printing of radical muslim literature for these temples of indoctrination mosques. More here, here, and here.
As a reminder, Turkey has been a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) since 1952 - an organization to which neither Russia nor Syria belong. Under the bylaws, when one NATO nation is attacked, it is incumbent for the rest of the NATO nations to respond. This includes the USA and Canada. Russia was running on oil revenues - now that the price is a fraction of what it used to be, Putin is stirring the pot.
Yet another perfect example of the socialist/communist end-game - running out of the cheap money.
