Currently on  the territory of the north of Syria Turkish special forces carry out an operation to eliminate terrorists of the Islamic State. Special Forces are working under the cover of the international coalition aircraft.

Turkey officially informed Russia about the operation in Syria.

Special Forces moved in the Syrian city Jarabulus on Wednesday, August 24th.

It is reported that Turkish territory was shelled prior to the beginning of the operation.

Background on this from Katehon:

Sources in the Turkish Defense Ministry have refuted information that Turkish regular troops are involved in fighting on Syrian territory. Turks provide support fire from the air, artillery, and by tanks units for the so-called Syrian opposition. However, everybody knows that the actions of certain paramilitary groups in this case are co-ordinated from Turkey. Arab media have reported the participation of Turkish tanks in the fighting in Syria.
