In a statement, the military said the air strikes targeted the Zap region, the Turkish name for a river which flows across the Turkish-Iraqi border and is known as Zab in Iraq.
The air strike was the second on Tuesday and the third in the past two days since Turkish soldiers started a military drill along the Iraqi border.
