Turkey has been using terror and the likes of Manbij attack, to further its own agenda in northern Syria, according to Salih Muslim, former co-chairman of Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) speaking in Qamishli on Thursday.
"It seems everyone agrees that Turkey is the beneficiary [of the Manbij attack]," said Muslim who said that despite taking responsibility, the so-called Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) is merely a tool in Turkey's hands.
"It [Turkey] wants to annex northern Syria to Turkey under different names, may it be safe zone or something else," added former PYD chief.
IS (formerly ISIS/ISIL) took responsibility for the Wednesday attack that reportedly targeted the US-led international coalition's patrol, leaving at least fourteen people including four US nationals dead.
