AN ISIS rocket has hit a group of children and an adult in Turkey.
Five children and one adult were wounded when the terrorist group launched a rocket at a shop in Kilis, a town on the Syrian border.
The area was evacuated and windows were seen shattered on the busy shopping street.
Terrifying footage from the attack shows smashed concrete and clouds of dust in the aftermath.
The rocket was fired from ISIS-held territory and is the first attack since Ankara-backed rebels cleared the area of jihadis earlier this month.
