ANKARA (Reuters) – Islamic State militants
attacked the Bashiqa military base in northern Iraq on Tuesday and
Turkish troops stationed there retaliated, military sources said.
Turkey deployed soldiers to northern Iraq in December,
citing heightened security risks near Bashiqa, where its soldiers have
been training an Iraqi militia to fight Islamic State militants. Baghdad
objected to the deployment.
The military sources said the Turkish army hit Islamic State targets from north of the camp after the attack.
