Turkish artillery fire has targeted the Islamic State group in Syria, killing 55 militants and destroying three vehicles and three rocket launchers, the state-run Anadolu Agency said.

Turkish warplanes also struck positions of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, in northern Iraq on Sunday.

The attacks come as Turkey is facing twin threats from the PKK and IS, which have carried out six major suicide attacks in the country since July.

Anadolu said the military attacked IS targets north of Aleppo on Saturday.
