Turkey returned fire Friday after a new Syrian shell landed in on its territory close to their common border, NTV private news channel reported. The Syrian shell landed in the Turkish town of Altinozu in Hatay province near the border, triggering an immediate response fire from Turkish forces, at around 1630 GMT. There were no immediate reports of injuries. The fresh round of fire exchange comes two days after a Syrian shell killed five Turkish nationals in another border town, Akcakale, triggering a Turkish retaliation fire in its immediate aftermath. Turkey ceased fire early Thursday morning, after a night of sporadic shelling that pounded unspecified targets in Syria. Turkey, a member of NATO, preserves its right to hit back if shelling continues, Turkish officials have warned.
