Two Turkish soldiers who were wounded in an explosion which took place during Operation Euphrates Shield in northern Syria succumbed to their wounds on Tuesday.

Four soldiers were wounded during mine clearance duty some seven kilometers south of the border between the towns of Jarablus and al Rai. As two soldiers, two others suffered from loss of hearing.

These casualties brought the total number of Turkish casualties to 10 in Euphrates Shield, which was launched on Aug. 24 to clear the area near Turkey's border from Daesh terror group, while preventing PKK's Syrian wing PYD to increase its area of control.
