Turkey Strikes Syria In Response To Weekend Shelling of Turkish Village

A couple of days ago, Syria lobbed shells into a Turkish border town.

The shells exploded after being fired into Akcakale from Tall al-Abyad in Syria, where forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad are trying to put down an 18-month-old insurgency.
The dead are said to include a woman and her three children.

Nine other people were wounded.

Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc was quoted as saying that Syria must be made to account for the incident and there must be a response under international law.

Reuters just reported:

Panetta: We've Lost Track of Some of Syria's Chemical Weapons. And they don't know whose hands they might have fallen into.
