Turkey has begun continuous shelling of YPG Kurds (pro-American) inside Syria for at least 3 hours; this is seen as a prelude to a ground attack on anti-ISIS forces inside Syria.

Confirmed: Russian and Syrian jets are on standby to shoot down any Turkish or Saudi plane that crosses into Syria. Turkey is prepared to close the Bosporus and attack Russian ships in the Mediterranean.
Our sources confirm that Saudi Arabia is prepared to bring tactical nuclear weapons to Turkey. Turkey already has 84 nuclear weapons at Incirlik Air Base under NATO control. We have confirmed that both Saudi Arabia and Turkey have American planes, both F 15 and F 16 modified for nuclear attack by Israel. America has removed all nuclear attack planes from Turkey under orders of President Obama.
We have confirmed that Turkey has a contingency plan to seize the NATO nuclear arsenal at Incirlik with the help of Saudi Special Forces, who have been trained in Israel to defeat US nuclear weapon security measures.
We have a confirmation that Saudi Arabia is moving planes to the American nuclear base in Turkey. This week US planes bombed civilians in Aleppo from this same base. Word from Saudi Arabia and Russia is that they expect a full scale Turkish invasion in response to Kurdish YPG consolidation, with American help, of new positions which would block Turkeyās access to its ISIS partners in Syria.
Both high level Russian and Syrian sources contacted this morning have confirmed that a much broader war is imminent.
Turkey has officially announced that they are ready to move into Syria against the US backed YPG who they deem as a terrorist group. Turkey has yet to attack ISIS and is only fighting Kurds with the exception of the Erbil regional group in Iraq. There is conclusive evidence that both Erbil and Ankara are fully behind ISIS.

Note:
[ Editorās Note, 2:30 pm ET: VT is back up after being hacked for several hours when one key story was up ā the one below on the Saudis moving tactical nukes to Turkey, to be closer to the NW Syrian battleground, and the NATO tripwire for any attack that might be launched on Syria after someĀ staged provocation.
This comes the day after Munich started, with the Turks shelling Azaz, 4 to 5 miles south of the Turkish border ā the last town on that supply road to Aleppo.
With this shelling, Turkey is in effect saying they are initiating an āartillery buffer zoneā, something most would consider a repudiation of the Munich cessation of hostilities. If the Kurds and Syria can move closer to their own borders, they can mine the roads to slow down any Turkish advance.
We also suspect todayās hacking to have been an eavesdropping event to delay a new story we are working on ā how Turkey has purchased swine flu from an employee at the Lugar lab in Georgia, which already has killed 1000 in Ukraine, been released in Russia, and surprise, surprise beginning to show up in the Turkish Kurdish resistance.Ā
Turkish forces started shelling Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG] postions on the territory of the Minnigh airbase in Syria’s northern Aleppo region, according to local media.
ALEPPO (Sputnik)Ā ā Turkish forces have started shelling an airbase and a village, recently captured byĀ Kurds, inĀ Syria’s northern Aleppo region, Al Mayadeen television reported Saturday.
“Turkish forces started shelling People’s Protection Units [YPG] postions onĀ the territory ofĀ the Minnigh airbase,” an YPG spokesperson told the channel.
The airbase was captured byĀ the Nusra Front militants inĀ 2013. Earlier this week, a militia source told RIA Novosti that the airbase had been captured and the extremists have retreated.
Ankara claims that Syrian Kurds have links toĀ the Kurdistan Workersā Party (PKK), a militant group fighting forĀ Kurdish independence fromĀ Turkey.
A ceasefire betweenĀ Turkey and PKK collapsed inĀ July 2015, prompting Turkish authorities toĀ launch a military operation inĀ the Kurdish-dominated southeastern regions.
