Five wounded as Syria rocket hits Turkey border town
2019-07-24
[ARABNEWS] Rocket fire from Syria injured five people in a Ottoman Turkish border town, the Ottoman Turkish defense ministry said on Tuesday.

One of two rockets fired hit a house and "lightly maimed" five in the town of Ceylanpinar in Sanliurfa province on Monday night, the provincial governor’s office said in a statement.

They were taken to hospital for treatment, it added.

Ottoman Turkish media, including CNN Turk, reported six injured including a child, adding that the owner of the house was "in a serious condition."

Ottoman Turkish armed forces responded, "destroying seven targets" inside Syria, the defense ministry said in a statement.

It was not clear who was responsible for the missiles from Syria or their origin.

The YPG worked closely with the United States in the fight against the ISIS group, much to Turkey’s chagrin.
