There are no plans to send ground troops into Syria, the Turkish Prime Minister has said.
The statement follows last week's suicide bombing in the Turkish town of Suruc, to which the country responded with operations against Islamic State and PKK Kurdish militants in Iraq and Syria.
Claims that the Turkish military has been targeting Kurdish fighters instead of Islamic State insurgents are being investigated by the Government.
A Turkish government official said the political wing of the Kurdish People's Protection Unit was outside the scope of its current military operations.
The official said: "The ongoing military operation seeks to neutralise imminent threats to Turkey's national security and continues to target Islamic State in Syria and the PKK in Iraq."
It follows claims from Kurdish fighters that the Turkish army had shelled its positions in a village on the outskirts of the IS-held town of Jarablus, in north-western Syria.
