Turkey: Turkish jets hit PKK terror targets in northern Iraq
Turkish airstrikes on Tuesday hit PKK terrorist targets in northern Iraq, according to the National Defense Ministry.
The Turkish jets destroyed weapon positions, shelters, and ammunition depots used by PKK terrorists in the Gara, Hakurk, and Avasin-Basyan regions, the ministry said in a statement.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU — has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people, including many women and children.
