Turkey shells Syria for second day In this photo released by the Syrian official news agency SANA, Syrians carry a dead body at the scene where multiple bombs explosions hit the center of Aleppo, Syria on October 3, 2012. The apparent suicide car blasts in the government controlled district came within minutes of each other and killed at least 40 people. Aleppo is Syria's largest city and is essentially split in half with the rebels controlling the eastern part and the government controlling the western part. ANKARA, Turkey, Oct. 4 (UPI) -- Turkish artillery units shelled Syrian targets across the border for a second day Thursday in response to the killing of five Turkish civilians, sources said. Artillery shells landed in the Syrian border town of Tel Abayad killing several Syrian soldiers, the Turkish dailies Today's Zaman and Hurriyet Daily News said. Citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights in London, CNN said some of the soldiers were killed in the shelling of Rasm al-Ghazi, a military center south of Tal Abayad. Turkey does not seek a war with Syria, Turkish media quoted Ibrahim Kalin, a senior adviser to Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan, as saying on his Twitter account. Turkey's Parliament was to vote Thursday on taking more military action in Syria after Ankara shelled Syria in reprisal for a deadly shelling of a Turkish town. Overnight Erdogan signed a memorandum to Parliament saying despite repeated warnings and diplomatic initiatives, the Syrian military continues its aggressive action. This situation has reached a level of creating a serious threat and risks to our national security. At this point the need has emerged to take the necessary measures to act promptly and swiftly against additional risks and threats," the memorandum said. The vote was to follow an emergency NATO meeting in Brussels late Wednesday in which the intergovernmental military alliance demanded an immediate halt to Syria's "aggressive acts." Before the retaliatory strike on Tal Abayad in Syria's north-central Raqqa province, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu consulted U.N.-Arab League envoy to Syria Lakhdar Brahimi, as well as U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Ankara said. Damascus asserted the plane was flying over Syrian territory. The Syrian Network for Human Rights said an additional 11 people were killed Thursday, four in Homs, three each in Aleppo and Hama, and one in the Damascus area.
