As a coalition of Arab and Kurdish fighters known as the Syrian Democratic Forces are advancing on the self-proclaimed capital of Daesh in Syria, reports indicate that Turkey is planning to use the Free Syrian Army in its battle against Syrian Kurds. The Turkish government has been training FSA militants to fight Kurdish forces for some time now. The aim seems to be keeping the Kurds far from Turkey’s southern border. Our correspondent Rahshan Saglam reports from Istanbul.
