Turkish warplanes destroyed an ammunition depot in Syria's northern border town of Jarablus on Saturday, military sources told CNN Turk.
The airstrikes have struck the People's Protection Units (YPG) militants, and were launched at 10 a.m. local time (0700 GMT) 8 kilometers south of Jarablus, according to reports.
Meanwhile, six more Turkish tanks enter Syria form southeastern Turkish province of Gaziantep early Saturday, local media reported.
The Turkish military has entered Syrian town of Jarablus as part of the "Euphrates Shield" operation, which reportedly aims at sweeping Islamic State (IS) militants off the border and prevent gains by Kurdish militia fighters in northern Syria.
The YPG, a part of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) alliance, has been a partner in the U.S.-led campaign against the IS in Syria.
Ankara has frequently voiced its concern over the YPG's activity along the Turkish border and has been rigid in its stance in not allowing the Democratic Union Party (PYD) militant group to found any kind of de facto Kurdish state in northern Syria.
Turkish government claims the PYD and its military wing YPG stay close connections with the PKK including sending militant and ammunition through underground tunnels.
