Turkey has launched an operation against Kurdish groups in northern Syria, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has announced.
Explosions were heard in the border town of Ras Al Ain after days of Turkish military build-up.

Arab states including the UAE and Saudi Arabia have condemned the incursion amid reports of civilian casualties.
