According to Syrian state media, the government has urged the United Nations to press Turkey to withdraw "its invasion forces from Syrian land".
The Syrian Foreign Ministry in a letter sent to the U.N. Security Council on Friday accused Turkey of supporting "terrorism that killed tens of thousands" and “destroyed part of the country's infrastructure”.
Friday's statement came a day after Syria's state media reported that Turkish troops shelled Syrian army positions north of the country, killing and wounding several troops.
