1. Yesterday, Turkey made an explicit threat against all public infrastructure in northeastern Syria, which it falsely claims is “YPG infrastructure.” Targeting civilians and civilian objects is a war crime, as are indiscriminate attacks.
2. Turkey also said that “third parties” (read: the Coalition) should avoid sites that may be targeted—a threat against the Coalition presence there, and very much not the first one.
