Turkey’s trade and customs affairs Ministry ordered
to lock all the control-checkpoints near the Syrian border. The Turkish media
reported about it.
Not long ago Turkish opposition
forces occupied the crossing points, but soon released them.
According to the UN data,
32 thousand Syrian refugees are currently on the territory of Turkey,
who had left their homeland because of the civil conflict.
The relationship between
the two countries escalated after the Syrian militaries shot down the Turkish
helicopter F-4 “Phantom” near the border. In response to this fact, the Turkey placed
anti-aircraft missile system at the border.
