Kurdish SDF fighters ambush unlucky SNA Militia

This thermal footage, captured by an overhead drone, observes two Kurdish Self Defense Forces (SDF) militia members getting the drop on two fighters from their opposite number, the Syrian National Army. Viewer discretion is advised as the SNA troops are shot at close range. The SNA is not to be confused with the actual military of Syria, and is instead a coalition of militias backed by Turkiye. Turkiye funds and assists the SNA in their fight against the Kurdish forces, because Turkiye has been in armed conflict with Kurdish insurgents for the last 40 years- namely, the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). Despite this affiliation, the United States backs the Kurds as valuable allies in the ongoing fight against Jihadist factions in the area, and Kurdish forces have demonstrated considerable efficacy with American tactics and equipment. The result is an incredibly convoluted proxy conflict which includes American, Turkish, and Russian supported players, and guest stars the Israeli Air Force.
