BEIRUT—Turkish troops have shelled a Syrian village near the border, targeting Kurdish fighters who have been battling the ISIS with the aid of U.S.-led airstrikes, Syria’s main Kurdish militia and an activist group said Monday.

The Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, said the Sunday night shelling on the border village of Til Findire targeted one of their vehicles. It said Til Findire is east of the border town of Kobani, where the Kurds handed a major defeat to the ISIS earlier this year.
