Four wounded after rockets hit Turkey's Kilis

Four people, including a police officer, were wounded after rockets fired from Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)-controlled territory hit the southeastern border province of Kilis early on May 5. 

Two rockets were fired from Syria, causing damage to a number of buildings, including a high school and the Provincial Education Directorate. Another rocket landed 20 minutes later. 

Police and ambulances were sent to the area amid an increase in security measures.

Meanwhile, the Turkish army said that four ISIL militants were killed and the weapon launching sites that the attack was carried out from was destroyed. 

Turkey has been hit by a series of rocket attacks originating from ISIL-held Syrian territory since mid-January. A total of 20 people have been killed and scores have been wounded by rockets fired at the border province since Jan. 18.
