The US government has continued to press Turkey over alleged human rights abuses committed by its proxies in northeast Syria, but according to a new watchdog report, Washington is “not fully satisfied” with Ankara’s response.
The State Department remained “deeply concerned” by alleged rights violations in parts of Syria seized during Turkey’s military operations against Kurdish fighters in October 2019, according to a quarterly inspector general's report on Operation Inherent Resolve, the official name for the US mission against the Islamic State (IS) in Syria and Iraq.
