After they collaborated to oust Assad, Syrian rebels say they’re attacking Kurdish forces in north

Syrian rebels say they have started an attack on Kurdish-led forces in the northern Syrian town of Manbij, according to a statement posted today — but dated yesterday — on X by the Defense Ministry of the Syrian Interim Government.

The Islamist rebels collaborated with the Kurds to overthrow the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, but now appear to have rapidly turned on each other.
