None

ANKARA—Mortar fire from an area assessed to be under the control of Syrian government forces hit a military outpost in Turkey's southeastern province of Hatay, the Turkish army said on Wednesday, adding it had retaliated in kind after the attack.

 

In a statement, the army said a separate cross-border mortar attack had been carried out on a different military outpost, also in Hatay, by members of the Kurdish militant YPG earlier on Wednesday.

 

There were no casualties in any of the attacks, the army said.
