Turkey and the U.S. have finalized a deal on Turkey’s involvement in air campaigns against Daesh, the Pentagon confirmed Tuesday.
"This includes full integration into the coalition's air tasking order, which tracks, coordinates, and de-conflicts all coalition air operations," according to spokesman Peter Cook.
Comments by the recently appointed Cook came just hours after Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu’s said the agreement details a wide, comprehensive operation against Daesh as well as works toward the creation of a safe zone along the Turkish-Syrian border.
Calling the agreement "a significant step forward", Cook said it could take a few days to put the arrangements into place at the operational level.
