Turkey has not shelled any positions held by Syrian Kurdish fighters inside Syria since a ceasefire was implemented last
week, a Turkish official said on Thursday, according to AFP.
Since mid-February, Turkish howitzers stationed just inside the border had on successive days shelled targets of the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) and its armed wing, the People's Protection Units (YPG), inside Syria, with the military saying it was responding to incoming fire. But Washington had urged Ankara to halt its fire, with the fighting raising concerns in the run up to the ceasefire.
Since then, there have been no reports of Turkey shelling the PYD, which Ankara accuses of being the Syrian branch of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).
