The second phase will include the Syrian Border Guard units being deployed along the border from Kobani to Semelka, two towns along Syria’s border with Turkey and Iraq respectively, Rudaw said.
According to the agreement, as cited by Rudaw, Syrian army forces will deploy along the border with Turkey in Kobani, Manbij, Derbisiyah, Amuda, Qamishli and Derik.
