Turkey and Russia have begun patrols in and around the northwestern Syrian city of Idlib on Friday under a deal reached last fall between the two countries

Turkey's Defence Minister Hulusi Akar says the Syrian regime has repeatedly violated the ceasefire in Idlib.

The deal last September set up a demilitarised zone in Idlib and other areas, but the Syrian regime has repeatedly violated the ceasefire in Idlib, Turkey’s Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said.Akar said Turkish policy towards neighboring countries, especially Iraq and Syria, is based on their territorial and political sovereignty.

Turkey has never had any problems with the Kurdish population or other ethnicities in Syria, as its army only strikes at terrorist nests, he explained.
