​

Despite claims of an agreement being reached, the shipment was reportedly delayed due to Turkey’s close monitoring of threats to drone shipments.​

Iran has reportedly agreed to supply 1,500 suicide drones to the Kurdish YPG/PKK group in Syria to counter Turkey’s military operations, a journalist of conservative Turkish newspaper Yeni Şafak, known for its support for Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erodgan and his Justice and Development Party (AKP), reported on Sunday.


The PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party) is a left-wing militia fighting for Kurdish independence in northeast Syria, northern Iraq, and southeastern Turkey, historically areas populated by ethnic Kurds.


The YPG (People's Defense Units) is a US-backed militia that controls areas of northeast Syria under the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES).

Turkey's AKP views both groups as "terror" organizations.

An alleged meeting between Iranian representatives and the Kurdish organization reportedly took place in a market in Iraq, where the Kurds reportedly requested 2,000 drones. According to the unverified report, Iran clarified it could only provide 1,500 units.

Despite claims of an agreement being reached, the shipment was reportedly delayed due to Turkey’s close monitoring and its threat to intercept any drone transfers into Syria. Determined to block the deal, Turkey’s reported efforts have brought cooperation between Iran and the YPG/PKK to a standstill, as per the report.

Turkey is mostly of the Islam Sunni sect, while Iran is of the Islam Shia sect.

Guess that 1,400 yrs + conflict had NEVER ended till one sect reign supreme, & Humanity are just mere canon & expendable fodders for those brutal leaders & their insane supporters to achieve their misguided aims, after all, anyone whom is NOT of the sect is considered an infidel - to be cheated, lied to, tortured or slaughtered at will......

Turkey's Erdogan presumes himself a potential Caliph of Islam to rule over I billion Sunnis.

Iran, of the 300million shias sect too seeks for such a title, since Ali whom was chosen by prophet Muhammad to lead his Muslims but the prophet's brutal but newly converted Muslim companions had other ideas in 7th century, even before the prophet's death bed had turned cold in the 7th century & thus led to the Sunni Shia divide since then.

As Iran had only 300 million believers of the Shia sect faith, its leaders would do ANYTHING to win converts, as shown in its proxy attempts to slaughter Jews thru supporting the Sunni Palestinians & Houthis, in a Zero sum game to win the right to rule over Muslims, even if regression back to the prophet's days, is necessary such as the brutal acts of chopping off hands for robbers, & more horrific harm in a World which had evolved since 7th century.

There was no conflict between Shiites and Sunnis until recently.
