The U.S. military says its forces in Turkey have carried out their first strike against Islamic State fighters in Syria.

U.S. military officials said an unmanned aircraft carried out the cross-border strike Wednesday. American warplanes began arriving at an air base in southern Turkey earlier in the day.

Turkey and the United States plan joint military action to clear IS militants from a part of Syria near the Turkish border.
