The Kurdish force in northern Syria said on January 22 that Turkey's operation against it in Afrin amounted to supporting the Islamic State jihadist group and urged its Western allies to act. Turkey, which fears the prospect of a powerful Kurdish statelet taking root on its border, launched an operation against the Kurdish enclave of Afrin on Saturday. / AFP PHOTO / Delil souleiman (Photo credit should read DELIL SOULEIMAN/AFP/Getty Images)
