Units have already been introduced to the two main border towns of Kobane and Manbidge.
Under the agreement signed between Russia and Turkey, Kurdish fighters have been given 150 hours to leave the border 30km, the BBC writes, translates Periscopi.
Turkish troops will continue to control the area they took during recent offensives against Kurdish fighters, who are named terrorists from Turkey.
Part of the Turkish plan is the creation of a secure <x0zone” along the border to accommodate the two million Syrian refugees currently sheltering within its home country.
Turkey's offensive began after the US had suddenly announced that it was withdrawing its troops from Syria. Earlier, these troops had backed Kurdish fighters in the fight against Islamic State [ ISIS].
The American president had posted on Twitter today that the situation in the border area had been “a major success”, and that he would speak more widely and more thoroughly next time. /Periscope
