Turkish military kills four Islamic State militants across Syria border

A suspected Islamic State jihadist blew himself up in southeastern Turkey near the Syrian border during a police raid, injuring five officers, one seriously, officials said Sunday.

The specter of the Islamic State threat and Syria’s civil war is hanging over the Turkish seaside city of Antalya as leaders descend for the Group of 20 summit of leading rich and developing nations. Instead they shot at the troops, who returned fire, killing the occupants of one vehicle. A few of the leaders arrived on Saturday. Police arrested four protesters outside a domestic flights terminal at the airport in Antalya, near the conference venue, Anadolu said.

The same day, IS claimed responsibility for the gun and suicide attacks that killed 129 people across Paris late Friday.

United States President Barack Obama, Russian President Vladimir Putin, British Prime Minister David Cameron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Chinese President Xi Jinping are also expected to attend the summit.

The European Union has offered financial support and promises of progress on Turkey’s bid to join the E.U., in exchange for a greater effort to keep Syrian migrants in Turkey.
