Turkey deploying troops to Syria’s militant-held Idlib: Report

‘The Turkish army is set to deploy forces to Syria’s militant-controlled northwestern Idlib province and establish military bases there, a report says.
The Beirut-based al-Mayadeen TV channel cited sources as saying on Saturday that the Turkish military had sent a telegram to militant groups operating in Idlib and informed them of the deployment.
Turkish forces, it said, would not attack the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham terrorist group, formerly known as al-Nusra Front, but would engage in a “diplomatic” process and push them to evacuate Idlib and hand over their positions to the Turkish army.
A Turkish envoy had personally conveyed the message during a meeting with militant ringleaders in Idlib, the report said.’
