"Today, SDF stands facing the barbaric Ottoman occupation, which we have suffered through the ages and mercenaries who looted , robbed and attacked properties of the Syrian people, and these mercenaries played a role with all previous terrorist factions, as agendas linked to the Turkish occupation under several names."

"We, as sheikhs and elders of Arab tribes north and east of Syria, are ready to provide nearly 50,000 fighters from tribes and Arab tribes north and east Syria to join under the banner of the Syrian Democratic Forces to confront the barbaric Ottoman occupier and its mercenaries."

"As we now have two million displaced people who have embraced us from all the people of Syria and live in safety and peace in our areas, we welcome with all the generosity our people, in which Erdogan says that they are 3 million people who are all of the sons of Syria, the Ottoman occupation tries this flimsy argument.
