    Russia's four-year-old military intervention saved President Bashar al-Assad but devastated civilian life across the country. Since April, 54 hospitals and clinics in opposition territory have been attacked, told us.

    Ok, not finally. Russia has it in its interest right now to promise the moon to the SDF—just to fuck over the Americans and get good press as defenders of the Kurds. The SDF is naturally hopeful of forestalling Turkey’s invasion and will jump at any proposed commitment.

    Finally, if Assad pulls his conventional forces away from Idlib and toward NE Syria, guess what? Rebels and jihadists in Idlib aren’t going to wait for them to come back before waging attacks.

    Second, the fact that they are being redeployed southward suggests more US military presence in Raqqa and Deir Ezzor, at least for the time being. The SDF in these areas are still working alongside Americans. Rules of engagement still apply: attacks by hostile forces are repelled

    A lot of the reporting so far focuses on a deal having been reached but not the details. Qamishli and Hasaka areas, where the regime had residual military presences and where Turkey isn’t invading, only bombing, may be easier to cede back to Damascus.

    SDF is melting away from the border where Turkey advances. So they’re waiting to ride back in and fight Turkey and the SNA with regime ground troops and the Russian Air Force? Moscow committed to this?

    This deal between Russia and the SDF appears to promise things that are going to be difficult for the SDF to receive. From the same NYT article this evening:
