General Mazloum Abdi, Commander-in-Chief of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), reiterated in an interview with Al Arabiya that the SDF has no ties to Iran, neither covert nor overt.

“We have no relations with Iran and do not receive any weapons from them, nor do we require their support. All the drone technology we possess and deploy on the battlefield is a product of our own development, derived from years of combat experience. Furthermore, we have the capability to intercept and neutralize large Turkish drones operating within our airspace.”
