Named after Turkey’s successful 2019 counterterrorism operation that freed the region from the YPG, the PKK terrorist group’s Syrian offshoot, Peace Spring Street in northern Syria’s Tal Abyad opened with a ceremony.
The street was constructed as part of the local council’s efforts to promote economic development, a goal supported by Turkey.

By the end of February, a shopping mall, textile workshop, pharmacy, vegetable market and restaurant are expected to open, too.
