“Three heroic brothers-in-arms were martyred in a car-bomb attack during a road check,” the ministry said. It did not provide further details on the attack.Turkey invaded the border area in neighbouring Syria to drive away the Syrian Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, a group it considers terrorist because of its links to Kurdish rebels fighting inside Turkey. However, the same fighters were the main U.S. allies on the ground in the war against the Islamic State group.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned the attack and vowed retaliation. “We cannot let this go without a response,” he said.
