SANLIRFA, TURKEY - JUNE 20: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan speaks at an election campaign rally at his ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party in Sanliurfa, Turkey on June 20, 2018. Turkey will establish an applied sciences university in liberated northern Syrian city of al-Bab, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday. Erdogan’s remarks came during his ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party’s election rallies in the southeastern province of Sanliurfa. He said an applied sciences faculty would be established in al-Bab in coordination with Turkey's Maarif Foundation and Harran University. "Classes will start in September 2018," Erdogan said. Erdogan recalled that Syria's Jarablus and al-Bab towns and Afrin city were all cleared of terrorists after Turkey's Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch operations. "Nearly 200,000 Syrians returned to these areas, to Jarablus and now to Afrin. And now we have made a deal with America and are making Manbij a safer area. My Arab brothers in Manbij are returning and will return to their lands," Erdogan said. (Footage by Celaleddin Gurbuz/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images)
