The U.S. flag flying over the buildings in the PKK/PYD-held town of Tal Abyad can be seen from Akçakale
An American flag was hoisted on the duty building under the control of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK)-affiliated Democratic Union Party (PYD) terrorist group in the north Syrian town of Tal Abyad in Raqqa on Sunday.
The flag is visible from the Akçakale town of southeastern Turkish province of Şanlıurfa.
Previously on Saturday, three American flags were lowered in the same area.
Also on Sept. 2, several PYD/PKK terrorists displayed an American flag in the village of Rafe, north of the liberated city of Manbij, 25 kilometers (15 miles) from the west bank of the Euphrates River.
According to a local Syrian opposition source on the ground, the flags are being used as deterrents to prevent attacks.
By displaying the U.S. flags, they are sending the false signal that U.S. forces are also present, the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity due to concerns for their safety.
