      Oh my, two mistakes in one sentence... HTS is not active in the south and Turkey supports the SNA (FSA) which is at times cooperating with HTS, but is at odds with them at the same time. The tentions just flared up today again and let to a lot of bloodshet between SNA and HTS in the last. Turkey did occasionally protect the HTS to a degree against Assads agressions (to prevent Assad from gaining ground), but also tried to get rid of them.

      The US supports neither the SNA, nor HTS, but supports the YPG in the north and a mercenary troop in the south that acts like they were FSA, not HTS.

      You know literally nothing about the conflict. Stop writing about it

          The groups in Al Tanf market themselves as Free Syrian Army (the original revolitionaries) and nowadays sometimes as Syrian Free Army.

          As said above, imo the groups in Al Tanf are simple mercenaries and have nothing to do with the original FSA.

          But one thing they surely are not, they are not HTS affiliated.
