The LNA, furthermore, continued heavily shelling the Mitiga international airport, which serves as a sort of Turkish headquarters, for its troops and the fighters it has deployed from Syria.
Reportedly, 4 Turkish officers were killed in the shelling and their bodies were airlifted out of the country.
