Turkish strike on Kurds in Syria kills 20: monitor

Defining the News

Qamishli, Syria – A Turkish air strike on Monday killed 20 Kurdish security personnel and wounded dozens at a training centre for police in Kurdish-held northeast Syria, a war monitor said.

The Kurdish force acknowledged the strike, saying that “a number of our forces were killed and others wounded”. Turkey’s defence ministry said on Friday that it had launched the new wave of air strikes in retaliation for an attack in Ankara earlier this month that wounded two security personnel. Turkish bombings had mostly subsided over the weekend after strikes hit energy infrastructure, including power stations and oil facilities on Thursday and Friday, killing at least 15 security personnel and civilians, according to the Kurdish authorities.
