Turkish military hits PKK/YPG targets, neutralising at least a dozen terrorists, the operation comes after three Turkish soldiers are killed in an IED explosion - Defence Ministry
Security officials have paid a visit to a Turkish soldier's family to offer condolences after he was killed in a terror attack.
A terrorist attack against the Turkish army left three soldiers dead, Defense Ministry said in a statement. The bomb was planted by YPG/PKK terrorists and exploded on Saturday in the country’s southeastern city Sanliurfa, bordering with Syria. The ministry said in a statement that the soldiers were "martyred in the southeastern Sanliurfa province's border district of Akcakale due to a blast from an improvised explosive device ."At least 12 PKK/YPG terrorists were neutralised by Turkish forces, the ministry said on Twitter.Turkish authorities use the word "neutralised" in statements to imply that the terrorists in question either surrendered or were killed or captured.
In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Turkiye, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organisation by Turkiye, the US, and the EU — has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants.
