Over 3000 Syrians flee fighting cross into Turkey
(MENAFN- Arab News) ISTANBUL: Over 3000 Syrians fleeing clashes between Islamic State and Kurdish fighters have crossed into Turkey since Wednesday a Turkish government official said.
Kurdish forces are trying to drive the militants out of Tel Abyad in Syria's Hassakah province close to the Turkish border town of Akcakale.
The official said 3337 Arab Syrians had crossed into Turkey in less than two days to avoid the clashes and bombing raids carried out against IS by a US-led coalition.
The Syrians were being given biometric registration and health checks at Akcakale border crossing the official added. One aid worker said thousands of people seeking refuge in the last week had been turned back by Turkish border guards many then heading for different destinations inside Syria.
