Eight Daesh terrorists have been killed by coalition forces in seven airstrikes in northern Syria as part of Operation Euphrates Shield, Turkish Armed Forces said Friday.
In addition, two defense emplacements and two mortars of Daesh have been destroyed in the airstrikes on Jabal Khirbat al-Kanisah and Ash Shudud.
Free Syrian Army's special forces have once again taken control of the Jabal Khirbat al-Kanisah residential area, which had been captured by Daesh terrorists on Tuesday.
Turkey launched Operation Euphrates Shield in late August to clear Syria's northern border area of terrorists.
It aims to boost security along Turkey’s borders, to clean terrorist groups and to protect the territorial integrity of Syria. Friday marks the 73rd day of the operation.
