    I’m just guessing they had help, and that Russia is the most likely benefactor in order to hurt Turkey for helping Ukraine.

    No grand conspiracy, just ordinary realpolitik.

        The YPG is not the same as the PKK. Kurds and Kurdish militias aren’t a monolith…

        Unfortunately the USA has classified the PKK as a terrorist organization, so no, it is highly unlikely they coordinate much, especially involving Turkey.

        I agree that the person you’re responding to is wrong, and pretty dim, but that doesn’t mean you should counter their bad takes, with possibly even worse ones.
