Turkey's Defense Ministry said one of its soldiers was killed and two were injured by Syrian government shelling, the latest fatality after 33 Turkish troops were killed in an airstrike in Syria earlier this week. The announcement late Friday also said Turkish forces hit Syrian government targets and a number of Syrian troops were “neutralized.” Syrian government forces have been on a weekslong offensive into Idlib province, the country's last rebel stronghold, which borders Turkey.
