Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Beshir Atalay has said that the number of Syrians, who had fled from the clashes in their country and entered Turkey, reached 15,000 so far. Speaking to private NTV channel last night, Atalay said that the movement along Turkish-Syrian border increased as there were cruelty and slaughter in Syria. The number of Syrians taking shelter in Turkey dropped to 7,000-8,000 for a while, but it increased to 15,000 now, said Atalay. Turkey's border with Syria is 910 kilometers.
