Turkey offers military training to Syria post-Assad, focusing on curbing Kurdish militia.

Turkey's Defense Minister Yasar Guler says the country is prepared to offer military training to Syria if the new administration requests it. This follows the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad by Syrian rebels supported by Turkey, ending a 13-year civil war. Turkey has reopened its embassy in Damascus and prioritizes eliminating the Kurdish YPG militia. Guler noted no signs of ISIS resurgence and does not expect a full Russian withdrawal from Syria.
