A U.S. Special Forces member serving with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Syria said Turkey is inflicting atrocities as it invades northeastern Syria.
βI am ashamed for the first time in my career,β the unidentified soldier, who has been involved in the training of indigenous forces on multiple continents, told Fox News Wednesday.
βTurkey is not doing what it agreed to. Itβs horrible,β the soldier added. βWe met every single security agreement. The Kurds met every single agreement [with the Turks]. There was no threat to the Turks -- none -- from this side of the border.β
