Turkish PM says "Operation" Olive Branch not limited to Syria's Afrin

 "Operation" Olive Branch
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım said there was no timeline for the ongoing Operation Olive Branch, and that it was not limited to Syria's Afrin.


"Our struggle in the Afrin region is not only to secure the borders of our country but also to protect the life and property of our citizens and to save the oppressed people living in Iraq and Syria from the persecution of the [PKK/PYD/YPG] terrorist organization," Yıldırım said on Friday, speaking at a graduation ceremony at National Defense University in Istanbul.

"This operation based on international law and our legitimate rights will continue to the end. [Telling] any day or date [when it will end] is out of question here. This operation is not limited to Afrin. Wherever there is a terror threat is a target for us," he added.
