Nato says it will hold an emergency meeting with Turkey because it says it feels threatened by Islamic militants.

Turkey asked for discussions after at least 32 people were killed in a suicide bomb attack near the Syria border last Monday.

It's since launched attacks on Islamic state targets - and also the Kurdish PKK inside Iraq.

Nato members can request support if they feel threatened.

The meeting is expected to take place in Brussels tomorrow.
