Turkey and Russia are negotiating to resume joint patrols along the M4 highway in Syria, sources from the Turkish authorities said. Joint patrols were suspended earlier this year due to increased activity of extremist groups in the region, BTA quoted.
The purpose of the patrols is to ensure safety along the strategic highway that connects the cities of Latakia and Aleppo. The talks are taking place against a background of new attacks and tensions in the region, which require coordinated efforts to stabilize the situation.
The resumption of patrols is expected to contribute to improved security and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to the affected population.
