Turkey-backed rebels say ready to join Turkey's operation against Kurdish militants in eastern Syria

Damascus, Dec 13 (Xinhua) Turkey-backed rebels in northern Syria on Wednesday expressed readiness to join Turkey's upcoming operation against Kurdish militia in eastern Syria, a war watchdog said.
Commanders of the Ankara-backed rebels said they are awaiting the orders from the "Turkish brothers" to launch an offensive which will cover areas between the eastern bank of the Euphrates River and the Iraqi border in the eastern countryside of Deir al-Zour Province, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), its allied groups such as the People's Protection Units (YPG), and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) are all based east of Euphrates, while the Turkey-backed rebels are located on the western bank of Euphrates.
