A U.S. service member greets a member of the Turkish Armed Forces at the Syria-Turkey border prior to the start of a joint ground patrol inside the security mechanism area in northeast, Syria, Sept. 8, 2019. The patrol allowed both militaries to observe first-hand progress on destroyed YPG fortifications and areas where YPG elements voluntarily departed the area. The security mechanism is intended to address Turkey’s security concerns, maintain security in northeast Syria so ISIS cannot reemerge, and allow the Coalition to remain focused on achieving the enduring defeat of ISIS. The U.S. and Turkish militaries are currently executing concrete steps together to ensure the border area in northeast Syria remains stable and secure. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Alec Dionne)
