Turkish soldiers kill four suspected Islamic State militants before G20 meeting

Turkish soldiers killed four suspected Islamic State militants today and authorities detained 11 demonstrators a day before leaders of the G20 group of economic powerhouses meet for a summit overshadowed by the slaughter in Paris.

The Anadolu Agency said two cars believed to be carrying IS militants approached an armoured military vehicle, ignored warnings to stop and opened fire on the soldiers. The soldiers responded, killing four militants inside one of the cars; the second car escaped, Anadolu said.
