Center-Akcakale, survey a point of interest during a joint aerial patrol of the security
mechanism zone over northeast Syria in a U.S. Army UH-60 Black Hawk
helicopter, Sep. 16, 2019. The security mechanism is intended to address Turkey’s security
concerns, maintain security in northeast Syria so ISIS cannot reemerge, and allow the
Coalition to remain focused on achieving the enduring defeat of ISIS. The U.S. and Turkish
militaries are currently executing concrete steps together to ensure the border area in
northeast Syria remains stable and secure. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Alec Dionne)
