27 Daesh militants killed in Syria

Istanbul: Turkish and US-led coalition forces struck Daesh targets north of the Syrian city of Aleppo, killing 27 militants, broadcaster CNN Turk and other media reported on Monday.

The reports did not say when the military action, which NTV said consisted of air strikes and shelling, occurred.

There have been a series of such strikes after the Turkish border town of Kilis, which lies just across the frontier from Daesh-controlled territory in Syria, was regularly struck by rockets in recent weeks.
