ALEPPO, Syria — The Free Syrian Army (FSA) factions in Aleppo’s countryside intensified their military training after Turkey announced the end of Operation Euphrates Shield on March 29.
The FSA factions established new training camps in Aleppo’s countryside, near the Turkish border, to include the large number of fighters who recently joined in, in addition to the senior fighters who have been fighting within FSA ranks for some time now.
