At least 23 Islamic State militants were killed in an attack by Turkish artillery and US-led international coalition in Syria, the media reported on Monday.
The attack took place on Sunday, after Turkish surveillance systems detected that IS was preparing to launch mortars into Turkish territory from northwestern Syria.
The joint attack also destroyed 33 IS positions.
Last week on Monday, Tuesday and Friday very similar attacks took place and left 28 IS militants dead, according to military sources.
