Syrian Kurd: How I lost my home
Turkey has agreed to a ceasefire in northern Syria to let Kurdish-led forces withdraw.
Before that announcement on Thursday, thousands of people were forced to leave their homes along the border to escape the fighting.
Sevinaz is a young woman from a city along the border called Ras al-Ain. She's one of the people who had to leave her home to escape the fighting. She fled to the city of Qamishli and told 成人快手 OS her story.
The aim of the operation was to push the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) from the border region. Turkey considers the SDF a terrorist organisation.
The Turkish government says it wants to create a "safe zone" in the area, where it can resettle Syrian refugees who are currently in Turkey.
Many of those refugees are not Kurds and critics warn that this could lead to ethnic cleansing of the local Kurdish population.
