DOHUK, Iraq — Protesters stormed a Turkish military camp near Dohuk in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdish region on Saturday, burning vehicles and standing on tanks, local residents said.

The protesters were demonstrating against recent Turkish air strikes in the area, the residents said.

Turkish forces shelled YPG militia positions in the northern Syrian region of Tal Rifaat for a third consecutive day, state media reported on Friday.

Tal Rifaat is located some 20 km east of Afrin. — Reuters
