Syrian opposition forms force to hold its army accountable
There's a new sheriff in town, so to speak, now that the Syrian Interim Government has established a military police unit in northern Aleppo.
ALEPPO COUNTRYSIDE, Syria — The Syrian opposition is taking steps to police its own army.
The Syrian Interim Government's recently formed National Army will now answer to a 300-member military police force in the Aleppo province of northern Syria, where Turkey conducted its Operation Euphrates Shield with the help of the Free Syrian Army (FSA). The 22,000-member National Army is comprised of fighters from about 30 FSA factions.
