GAZIANTEP, Turkey (AA) - A Turkish soldier, who has been wounded in northern Syria during Operation Euphrates Shield, was martyred Saturday in Turkey's southeastern province of Gaziantep, military sources said.
The soldier, who had been wounded in Syria's al-Bab province and transferred to Gaziantep on Friday, succumbed to his wounds in Gaziantep University Medical Faculty Hospital, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to restrictions on talking to the media.
Operation Euphrates Shield began in late August to improve security, support coalition forces, and eliminate the terror threat along Turkey's border using FSA fighters backed by Turkish artillery, and jets.
