As a result of the air operation carried out by the Turkish Armed Forces in the Pençe-Kielit surgery zone in northern Iraq, three RSC terrorists were neutralized. This was reported in the Ministry of National Defense of Turkey.
The Turkish department noted that the Turkish Armed Forces continue to eliminate the “Logov terrorists”.
“Three terrorists of the RKK were neutralized as a result of a sudden air operation carried out in the Pençe -Kielit area in the north of Iraq,” the statement said.
Turkish Armed Forces will continue to pursue terrorists, wherever they are, – added in the department.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that since 1984, when the militants of the RSC for the first time had carried out a bloody crime in Turkey, and until March 2020, 7,500 security forces of Turkey and 6,800 civilians were killed at the hands of this bloody organization.
The United States and the European Union introduced PKK to the lists of terrorist organizations.
Despite Ankara’s attempts to find ways to settle the situation, the PKK terrorist organization has resumed armed attacks since July 2015.
In recent years, PKK seeks to shift responsibility for bloody crimes in the region to its branches.
In Syria, PKK terrorists are covered by the names Pyd and YPG, and in the last two years they call themselves “Syrian democratic forces.”
In Iran, PKK acts as “Party of Free Life of Kurdistan” (pjak).
