The Turkish Army does not usually participate in battles around Aleppo; however, this week, they were reportedly offering their rebel forces tank assistance agains the Islamic State terrorists near Al-Bab.
The Turkish-backed rebels are currently within 2 km of the Islamic State stronghold of Al-Bab, as they make their final preparations to attack this key town in eastern Aleppo.
