From Turkey's side of the border, rebels were seen moving around the town while Turkish soldiers observed. Officials said the battle had prompted most of the town's 50,000 residents to flee, with many heading over the border into Turkey. Over a hundred thousand refugees are now sheltering in camps across the country.
