It’s the biggest single-day loss of Turkish soldiers in Syria’s civil war.
33 of them were killed on Thursday by government air strikes in Idlib, the last rebel-held province.
Turkey retaliated with attacks on Syrian army positions.
It also appears to be putting pressure on allies in Europe to respond.
Ankara says it won’t stop Syrian refugees who want to cross border points into the European Union.
If this happens, it would go against a 2016 deal for EU funds in return for hosting refugees.
Could this tension trigger a new humanitarian crisis?
