Military Times: The U.S. envoy for Syria visited the northern town of Manbij on Monday, where U.S. and Turkish troops could begin conducting joint patrols in the coming days, a Kurdish official said.
Ebrahim Ebrahim said James Jeffrey met with members of the Manbij Military Council and briefed them on his recent visit to Turkey and Saudi Arabia. He gave no further details.
Furat FM, a radio station in northern Syria, said Jeffrey would meet with officials from the political wing of the Syrian Democratic Forces, a U.S.-backed and Kurdish-led group that drove Islamic State militants out of much of northeastern Syria.
