Turkish forces, allied militants enter Syria’s northern city of al-Bab

‘Turkish forces along with allied militants have entered the Daesh-held Syrian city of al-Bab, says a UK-based monitoring group.
According to the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the Turkish troops entered the northern city’s western flank on Saturday where they took control of several suburbs after heavy clashes with the terrorists.
The monitoring group said the clashes coincided with “Turkish shelling and intensive airstrikes” which killed at least six civilians.
Turkey’s Anadolu news agency reported that one Turkish troop was killed and another injured during the push to enter the city.’
