Turkish and Russian warplanes hit several targets for ISIL Takfiri terrorists across Syria, Turkey’s military said on Monday.

Turkish warplanes and artillery have struck ISIL targets in Syria, killing 22 of the group’s militants, while Russian aircraft hit Takfiris near the Islamic State-controlled town of al-Bab, Turkey’s military said.

In a round-up of its military operations over the past 24 hours in northern Syria, the army said the Russian aircraft destroyed ISIL targets in the area of Dayr Kak, 8 km (5 miles) southwest of al-Bab.

The Turkish military operation, dubbed ‘Euphrates Shield’, was launched more than four months ago to drive ISIL militants away from the border region and in recent weeks the forces have been besieging the town of al-Bab.
