<p>The government statement says three F-16 jets took off from Diyarbakir airbase in south-east Turkey and used smart bombs to hit three IS targets across the Turkish border province of Kilis.</p>
<p>It said the decision for the operation was taken at a security meeting yesterday, held after IS militants fired from Syrian territory at a Turkish military outpost, killing a soldier.</p>
<p>State-run TRT television said the Turkish planes had not violated Syrian airspace.</p>
<p>Yesterday, five IS militants fired from Syrian territory at a Turkish military outpost, killing one soldier and prompting Turkish retaliation that killed at least one IS militant.</p>
<p>The operation also comes a day after United States officials said Turkey had agreed to allow the US access to a key Turkish air base for use against the extremist group.</p>
<p>Earlier in the week, a suicide bombing blamed on IS militants killed 32 people in south-eastern Turkey, near the Syrian border.</p>
<p>Turkish officials have raised concerns that the bombing was part of a campaign of retaliation for Turkey’s recent crackdown on IS operations in the country.</p>
<p>In the last six months, Turkish officials say, more than 500 people suspected of working with IS have been detained.</p>
