Casualties Mount as Turkey Presses Syria Offensive

Turkey agrees to suspend fighting for five days

Turkey has agreed to a ceasefire in northern Syria to let Kurdish-led forces withdraw, US Vice-President Mike Pence has announced.

The development followed talks in Ankara between Mr Pence and Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
All military operations will be paused for five days, and the US will help facilitate an "orderly withdrawal" of Kurdish-led troops from what Turkey has termed a "safe zone" on the border.

Meanwhile Erdogan claims the Kurds are the once letting ISIS fighters out of prison.

He posted this message on his social media account.
