SDF, Syrian Government Forces Face Off In Aleppo Clashes — 8/4

The Kurdish-backed SDF is under pressure to integrate its forces into the Syrian military

Armed clashes erupted early in the morning on 4 August between the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and Syrian government forces near the town of Deir Hafer in northern Syria.

The US-backed SDF issued a statement saying that factions affiliated with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa’s government “launched an attack on four of our positions” in the town in Aleppo Governorate.

“Our forces confronted the attack and responded as necessary in defense of our positions and fighters. Clashes ensued and continued for 20 uninterrupted minutes.”

The SDF said Sharaa’s government was “fully responsible” for the attack while adding it reserves the right to respond “with full force and determination.”

On Sunday, Syria’s Defense Ministry accused the SDF of launching a barrage of rockets on an army outpost in the Manbij countryside in northern Syria, injuring four troops and three civilians. The ministry described the attack as irresponsible and without justification.
