According to information obtained from local sources, the US Army has deployed AN/TWQ-1 Avenger short-range air defense systems to the Hasakah region of Syria. These systems provide effective protection against unmanned aerial vehicles and low-altitude aircraft and helicopters.
US Shipment to Syria
During the shipment made with US trucks and armored vehicles, it was determined that 4 to 6 AN/TWQ-1 Avenger air defense systems were transferred to the region. This action draws attention among the support given by the US to the PKK/YPG.
Turkey’s Struggle
