Turkish warplanes bombarded Kurdish militia targets in Syria's Afrin region, the army said on Friday, and a monitor said the strikes killed seven fighters and two civilians.
The local government in Afrin accused Turkey of creating a "humanitarian crisis" by killing at least 160 people and displacing tens of thousands since the start of its three-week-old offensive. Ankara has denied such charges.
Turkey launched the air and ground operation into the Afrin region in northwest Syria - dubbed "Operation Olive Branch" - targeting the Kurdish YPG militia. The incursion has opened a new front in Syria's multi-sided war and further strained relations with Nato ally Washington.
The air strikes destroyed 19 targets including ammunition depots, shelters and gun positions, the armed forces said in a statement without specifying when the raids were conducted.
The raids began at midnight, state-run Anadolu news agency said.
The raids killed seven YPG forces and two civilians, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based group that monitors the war.
A Kurdish official and top member of Afrin's civil administration, Hevi Mustafa, said the Turkish offensive had killed 160 people, including 26 children and 17 women, so far. The attacks have displaced around 60,000 people, she said.
"This has created a humanitarian crisis, because the capacities of the region are not enough to meet the needs of this massive displacement," she told a news conference.
The overnight strikes were the first by the Turkish air force in nearly a week. Turkey had halted air strikes as Russia worked on its air defence system after Syrian anti-government insurgents shot down a Russian warplane elsewhere in Syria on February 3, Turkey's Hurriyet newspaper reported.
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke by telephone on Thursday and agreed to strengthen military and security service coordination in Syria, according to the Kremlin.
Since the Syrian conflict erupted in 2011, Syrian Kurdish forces and their allies have set up three autonomous cantons in the north, including Afrin.
Their territory has expanded since they joined forces with the United States to fight Islamic State militants - although Washington opposes the Kurds' autonomy plans, as does Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government.
US support for the Kurdish-led forces has infuriated Turkey, which views growing Kurdish power as a security threat along its frontier. Ankara sees the YPG as an extension of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) that has waged a three-decade-long insurgency in Turkey's mainly Kurdish southeast.
