Syria reports gunbattle on Turkish border
(Reuters) - Syrian border guards blocked an infiltration attempt from Turkey by about 35 "armed terrorists," the official Syrian news agency SANA said on Tuesday, as Syria forces battle a growing threat from army defectors and rebel fighters.
SANA said some of those who came over the border were wounded and escaped back to Turkey where they received aid from the Turkish army. The wounded were transported in Turkish military vehicles, SANA said. (AP)
