Turkey Approves Military Operations in Syria

After five people were killed, on Wednesday, by badly aimed Syrian weapons fire, Turkey struck back by firing artillery in response.

Several Syrian troops were reportedly killed by the responding fire, which has continued into Thursday.

NATO has condemned the firing into Turkey, whilst Russia has asked Syria to promise it will not happen again.

To add to the situation Turkey's parliament voted, nearly unanimously, to allow for their military to enter into Syria, if anything further happens.

Syria has yet to respond to Turkey's continued two day shelling of their territory.
