Turkish forces have now pushed eight kilometres deeper into territory held by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in northern Syria. Ankara says at least 15 villages have been captured by its troops.
The United Nations says more than 100,000 people have been displaced since the Turkish offensive began on Wednesday.
Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan says his objective is to remove Kurdish-led forces from the border area and create a "safe zone" so millions of Syrian refugees can be returned.
