Turkey's military shelled Kurdish militia target in northern Syria on Saturday. And Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu demanded the group withdraw from the area.

The shelling took place, after Kurdish YPG fighters drove Syrian rebels from a former military air base, near the Turkish border. Davutoglu said Turkey retaliated after YPG fighters carried out "harassing actions" on the border.

The shelling came amid growing anger in Ankara with the United States, for supporting the YPG, which Ankara regards as a terrorist organisation.
