Turkish Ministry of Defense reported on Thursday to neutralize another 16 terrorists in the Syrian regions of Tall-Ryfat and Münbich.
The department emphasized the determination of the Turkish army to eliminate the threat of terrorism in the region.
“Turkish armed forces will continue the steps to destroy terrorists who organized an attack on the location of the Turkish military personnel,” the message said further.
The total number of militants liquidated in the last days in the north of Syria reached 57.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan previously stated that since 1984, when the militants of the RSC for the first time carried out a terrorist attack in Turkey, thousands of employees of Turkish security forces, military and civilians died at the hands of this bloody organization.
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 bloody crimes in the region to its branches.
In Syria, the RKK terrorists are covered by the names Pyd and YPG, and in the last two years they call themselves “Syrian democratic forces.”
In Iran, RSC acts as “Party of Free Life of Kurdistan” (pjak).
