The al-Bab Military Council (BMC) is an ethnically mixed force of the Syrian Democratic Forces, consisting of Kurd, Arab, and Turkmen militias from northern Aleppo Governorate. During the civil war, the BMC maintained a presence in several villages west of Manbij, but its overt objective was to capture al-Bab, which was then under the control of the Syrian Interim Government.
