Ankara said it had fired 500 times on the barbaric terror network’s militiamen, killing 200 jihadis.
The action was in retaliation after a suicide bomber murdered German holidaymakers in central Istanbul on Tuesday.
Turkey followed the artillery onslaught by threatening the group - also know by their Arabic acronym Daesh - with airstrikes.
Several of ISIS' regional leaders were said to have been killed in the land strikes.
Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said the country would maintain its "determined stance" until ISIS was pushed away from its border areas.
Claims of mass ISIS casualties come as Britain pledged to work with Turkey to defeat the terror group.
48小時內，土耳其坦克，火炮向敘利亞，伊拉克伊斯蘭國據點開炮，共擊斃約200名恐怖分子。
Turkish tanks and artillery have bombarded Islamic State positions in Syria and Iraq over the past 48 hours, killing almost 200 of its fighters in retaliation for a suicide bombing in Istanbul, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said on Thursday.
An Islamic State suicide bomber, who entered Turkey as a Syrian refugee, blew himself up among groups of tourists in the historic centre of Istanbul on Tuesday, killing 10 Germans and seriously wounding several other foreigners.
Turkey, a NATO member and part of the US-led coalition against Islamic State, would also carry out air strikes against the radical Sunni militants if necessary and would not yield until they were flushed from its borders, Davutoglu said.
“After the incident on Tuesday close to 500 artillery and tank shells were fired on Daesh positions in Syria and Iraq,” he told a conference of Turkish ambassadors in the capital Ankara, using an Arabic name for Islamic State.
“Close to 200 Daesh members including so-called regional leaders were neutralised in the last 48 hours. After this, every threat directed at Turkey will be punished in kind.”
Davutoglu said the Turkish strikes had targeted Islamic State positions around Bashiqa in northern Iraq, where Ankara recently deployed a force protection unit to defend Turkish soldiers who are training an Iraqi militia in the fight against the Sunni radicals.
Cross-border strikes into Syria targeted an area around the rebel-held town of Marea, 20 km from the Turkish border and near the edge of a “safe zone” Turkey wants to establish in northern Syria to keep Islamic State at bay.
“Our ground strikes on these positions are continuing and if necessary our air force will come into play,” Davutoglu told the conference.
