US forces have completed preparing the runway in its military base near Lafarj cement company in al-Asheq village in Ain al-Arab (Kobani), eastern Aleppo countryside.
Sources confirmed that the base, where work started months ago, includes an airport and a military base for logistic support and aims at participating in Manbij battles launched by coalition forces. It also aims at providing air support to Syria Democratic Forces which are led by The People’s Protection Units (YPG).
Al-Jazeera reported that coalition forces have also started using Rmeilan airport north of Hasakah as a base for its warplanes which are participating in the battles against ISIS.
It is worth recalling that a US spokesman in the area confirmed months ago that the US does not control any airports in Syria.
