An announcement came from Turkish Ministry of National Defense related to the demilitarized areas to be set up in Idlib. The ministry announced that a meeting was held in Ankara to determine the borders in Idlib and an agreement was reached at this meeting.
The borders were determined by taking the area's geographical structure and residential areas into account, it said, adding that the meetings were held between Sept. 19-21 at Turkiye's defense ministry.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Russia's Vladimir Putin announced an agreement on Monday under which Russian and Turkish troops will enforce the new demilitarized zone in the Idlib region, from which some opponent groups will be required to withdraw by the middle of next month.
