(VOVWORLD) - Turkish and Russian troops held the ninth round of joint land patrols on Wednesday in northern Syria under a deal reached last month for the withdrawal of Syrian Kurdish fighters, said the Turkish Defense Ministry.

The patrols are part of a memorandum between Ankara and Washington to remove fighters of the People's Protection Units (YPG) 30 km from the Turkish border.

Ankara sees the YPG as the Syrian offshoot of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party in Turkey.
