in the latest clashes in northern Syria on Thursday, Turkey's armed forces said
in a
statement on Friday.
In a round-up of its military operations over the last 24 hours in
support of rebels in northern Syria, the army said Turkish warplanes destroyed
21 Islamic State targets in the areas of al-Bab and Bzagah, including buildings
and vehicles.
Turkey's military operation, dubbed 'Euphrates Shield', was launched more
than four months ago to drive Islamic State from the border and prevent a
Kurdish militia taking territory in their wake. In recent weeks, the forces
have been besieging the town of al-Bab.
