Syria Jarablus: Turkish tanks roll into northern Syria - BBC News

A dozen Turkish tanks and other vehicles have rolled across the Syrian border after heavy shelling of an area held by so-called Islamic State (IS).


Military sources told Turkish media 70 targets in the Jarablus area had been destroyed by artillery and rocket strikes, and 12 by air strikes.


Turkish-backed Syrian rebels are accompanying the Turkish advance.


President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the operation was aimed against both IS and Kurdish fighters.


Turkey shelled Syrian Kurdish forces in the region this week, determined not to let them fill the vacuum if IS leaves, the BBC's Mark Lowen reports from Gaziantep, near the Syrian border.
