MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 23rd November, 2019) The Russian military police continue patrolling Syria's provinces of Al-Hasakah, Aleppo and Raqqa, Maj. Gen. Yuri Borenkov, the head of the Defense Ministry's Reconciliation Center in Syria, said on Friday.
"The Russian military police units continue patrolling ... the al-Hasakah province, ... the Raqqa province, ... the Aleppo province," Borenkov said during a briefing.
The patrols are part of last month's pact between Russia and Turkey that designated areas for Russian patrol missions outside of the Turkish-held "safe" border zone that Ankara wanted to be cleared of Kurdish fighters to move in refugees.
