Fighting is intensifying in Syria between Turkish troops and the government forces of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The Turkish military continues to attack Syrian government forces in the northwestern province of Idlib.
The Turkish campaign followed air bombardments of Turkish troops by the Assad administration last Thursday that killed 33 Turkish soldiers.
On Sunday, Turkish forces shot down two Syrian warplanes.
The Turkish military says its aim is to put an end to alleged massacres it says are being carried out by the Assad administration, and to prevent people from being displaced and becoming refugees.
