According to sources speaking anonymously, one rocket landed Monday evening in Peace Street in the Kazim Karabekir neighborhood.
Eighteen-year-old Syrian national Nur Dervis was killed. Fellow Syrian Emine Asseni, 36, and Turkish national Mustafa Mutluer, 31, were wounded and taken to Kilis State Hospital.
According to military sources, Turkish artillery fired on Daesh positions in Suran, Arshak, Ikdakh and Ihtimalat regions on the Syrian side of the border in retaliation, killing 50 Daesh terrorists.
