Turkey, supported by the US, continues occupation of lands in Northern Syria within the framework of the Euphrates Shield operation, a Lebanese daily wrote, disclosing that Ankara is setting up a military base in the region.
According to al-Safir newspaper, Turkey is implementing the scenario played in Iraq's Bashiqa now in a village in Northern Aleppo.
The suspicious moves of certain Turkish army units near al-Zareh village in the Southern parts of al-Rae'i town (near the Syrian-Turkish border) show that Ankara is seriously pursuing establishment of a military base in Northern Syria.
According to the newspaper, the goal of such moves is setting up a military base, airbase or camp by the Turkish army under the pretext of the Euphrates Shield operation.
Informed sources said on Sunday that Ankara had dispatched more soldiers and military equipment to the Northern territories of Syria to strengthen its Euphrates Shield Operation.
"The Turkish Army has sent more forces to Jindris region at the Turkish border with Syria in Northwestern Aleppo," the sources said.
News sources, for their part, said on Monday that Ankara has dispatched reinforcement to two border regions of Qarqmish and Ugozeli in Gaziantep in Southern Turkey.
Ankara has also forwarded a number of tanks, military vehicles and equipment to its borders.
Turkey has deployed its forces in the Northern Iraqi town of Bashiqa despite Baghdad's objections.
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said earlier this month that Turkish troops will remain in the camp.
"There are soldiers from 63 countries in Iraq. Claims toward Turkey about its military presence in Iraq are an unfriendly step. Turkey will maintain its presence in the country," Yildirim said.
Turkey claims that deployment of troops and tanks is to help the Iraqi national forces reclaim the city of Mosul from the ISIL but it has caused a rift with Iraq.
