Beirut: Syrian government forces on Wednesday reopened a major highway in northern Syria once controlled by the country’s minority Kurds, Syrian state media and a monitor reported.
In October, the Syrian Kurdish militias announced a Russian-brokered deal allowing government forces to deploy in Kurd-ruled areas near the border with Turkey in an attempt to stop a Turkish incursion in the area.
Syria’s satate-run news agency SANA said on Wednesday that a highway, dubbed M4, was reopened to traffic after Syrian Army units completed their deployment and set up checkpoints there.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights confirmed to dpa the reopening of the route. (DPA)
