Reports on Thursday indicate the U.S. military is increasing its presence in Syrian Kurdistan (Rojava), possibly building a new base in Kobani.
Kurdistan 24, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), reported a convoy of 50 trucks carrying Bremer walls entered Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF)-controlled areas, heading toward the Kurdish city near the Turkish border.
“Sources from the observatory indicated that the delivery is part of ongoing efforts by US forces to reinforce existing bases and establish a new military facility in Kobani,” Kurdistan 24 reported. “Reliable SOHR sources have confirmed that excavation and construction work is expected to begin on Friday, with additional reinforcements anticipated.”
Iran International and SDF-linked outlets reported Thursday that the U.S. coalition against ISIS is building a military base in Kobani, with sightings of a convoy delivering construction materials. Shafaq also confirmed the convoy, associated with U.S. forces, was headed to SDF-controlled areas.
