The SDF forces have found the pilot of the Syrian warplane that was shot down in Raqqa on Sunday, social media activists said today.
They said that the SDF is most likely to hand over the pilot to the Syrian troops after negotiating with the Syrian army.
The report has not yet been confirmed by official source in the Syrian government or the SDF.
On Sunday, a Syrian fighter plane engaged in operations against the ISIL in Raqqah was downed by the US-led coalition warplanes.
The Syrian army’s general command stressed that the “flagrant aggression” highlights the US’s true stance against terrorism.
“The attack stresses coordination between the US and Daesh, and it reveals the evil intentions of the US in administrating terrorism and investing it to pass the US-Zionist project in the region,” it added. "This comes at a time when the Syrian army and its allies were making clear advances in fighting the ISIL terrorist group."
Meantime, the first clash between the Syrian army troops and the predominantly Kurdish-led Syrian democratic Forces occurred North of the city of Rasafeh after a Syrian air force fighter jet was shot down by the US-led coalition warplanes West of Raqqa.
The Syrian army and SDF forces reportedly engaged in fierce clashes North of al-Rasafeh city and in areas surrounding Shavihayan and Jaydeen villages.
The Syrian troops tried to rescue the pilot of the Syrian air force's fighter jet, Ali Fahd, after his plane was shot down by the US-led forces, but they faced the US-backed forces.
