I'm really skeptical of the claim that they are setting wheat fields on fire, because their economic situation is pretty desperate right now and it would run counter to their goal of developing economic self-sufficiency.
Using/selling oil that you control is not the same thing as setting your own food supply on fire. Qamishlo is one of the biggest cities in Rojava and it is majority Kurdish. The Kurds would have to be fucking insane to be setting fire to wheat fields there, which is why that's blatant propaganda. If they were accused of setting wheat fields on fire in like Aleppo or something that would make more sense.

So they can be occupying Oil fields where the US president brags about stealing the oil but burning wheat fields is beneath them?
