Syrian rebel leader Ahmed al-Sharaa says state to control all weapons

Syria's de facto new leader Ahmed al-Sharaa Sunday said that all weapons would be controlled by the state in a presser with Turkish FM Hakan Fidan, referring to those held by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces that operates in the country’s north. Turkey views the US-backed group as being linked to its outlawed domestic foe – the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
