Turkey’s state-run news agency says a rocket projectile fired from Syria has hit a Turkish border town, killing at least one person and wounding several others.
The death Monday raises the number of fatalities from rockets fired into the border town of Kilis this year to 20.
Anadolu Agency says the man was killed while walking on a street in Kilis. A house in Kilis also caught fire, the agency reported.
