TURKISH jets attacked Islamic State (Isis) targets in neighbouring Syria yesterday in a major policy shift for the Nato member state.
Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said three air strikes had “removed potential threats” to Turkey.
But, he added: “It is not limited to one day or to one region. The slightest movement threatening Turkey will be retaliated against in the strongest way possible.”
