The Ministry of National Defense of Turkey reported on Friday to neutralize 22 terrorists in the north of Syria and Iraq.
The Turkish defense department emphasized that “terrorists will not be able to avoid their expected end.”
“The heroic armed forces of Turkey neutralized 21 terrorist of the RSC, discovered in the regions of Gara and ASOS in the north of Iraq, as well as one YPG militant (Syrian wing of the RSC), discovered in the area of the Euphrates Brothermith in the north of Syria,” the said in the area message.
Turkish Armed Forces will continue to pursue terrorists, “wherever they are,” added in the Turkish department.
Since 2016, Ankara has conducted three successful operations in order to eliminate the threat of terrorism at its southern borders and ensure the safety of the local population. In particular, we are talking about the operations “Shield of the Euphrates” (2016), “olive branch” (2018) and “Source of the World” (2019), which were held by the Turkish Armed Forces in the north of Syria.
RKK, over the many years of his bloody terrorist activity against Turkey, is responsible for the death of more than 40 thousand people, including women, children and babies.
The United States and the European Union introduced RKK to the lists of terrorist organizations.
In recent years, the RSC seeks to shift responsibility for its bloody crimes in the region to its branches.
In Syria, the RKK terrorists are covered by the names Pyd and YPG, and in the past few years they call themselves “Syrian democratic forces.”
In Iran, RSC acts as “Party of Free Life of Kurdistan” (pjak).
