  The Pentagon says clashes between the Turkish army and US-backed Kurdish forces are unacceptable. Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook condemned the fighting south of the Syrian town of Jarablus. He called on all sides to stand down and take appropriate measures to de-conflict. He stressed that fighting is taking place in areas where Daesh is no longer present. The Turkish army and the militants supported by Ankara have clashed with Kurdish forces several times in northern Syria over the past days.
