Official: Turkey has retaliated, 'no interest in war' with S

Post by Chiron »

Istanbul, Turkey (CNN) -- Turkey renewed cross-border attacks in Syria on Thursday, even as a government official said the country has "no interest in war with Syria."

The cross-border attacks began Wednesday when Turkey fired on Syrian government targets in retaliation for shelling that struck one of its border towns and killed at least five people.

It was the first time that Turkey fired into Syria during the 18-month-long crisis there.

I don't see Turkey invading Syria. Unless, of course the Syrian Kurds make trouble for Turkey.
