The military said Thursday that a group of around three to five people from across the border fired up to 15 shots toward the vehicle that was patrolling an area near the frontier. No one was hurt.

Turkey has repeatedly struck the Syrian military in response to shelling and mortar rounds that landed on its territory. But this is the first time the military has responded to shots fired from Syria.

    Turkey, Jordan, and of course Lebanon experience this … there is a great desire in someone’s head to have all the countries up in arms and killing as many as possible, but little ‘groups’ – called gangs – will always pop up to cause havoc wherever they can – because their smuggling routes are being cut off more than likely. Hard to have the drugs flowing when armies are watching borders too well.
    Shooting at soldiers is about as smart as anything else they do, of course.
