ABC News apparently mistook video of machine gun fire on a Kentucky gun range for the Turkish attack on Syria

Video footage of a purported "bombing of Kurd civilians" by Turkish military forces shown on ABC News appeared to be a nighttime firing of tracer rounds at a Kentucky gun range.

The footage purported to show the "fury of the Turkish attack" on the Turkey-Syria border, where Turkish forces are indeed attacking the once US-backed Kurdish militia.

ABC News said it regretted the error on Monday and took down the video segment.
