Turkish Armed Forces neutralized 29 YPG terrorists (PKK Syrian wing) in the north of Syria.
This is stated in the message of the Ministry of National Defense of Turkey, published in social networks on January 17.
“The terrorists have nowhere to run, it is nowhere to be safe for them,” the Turkish department said.
Turkish Armed Forces neutralized 29 YPG terrorists who were preparing an armed attack in the north of Syria – follows from the message.
The Turkish military will continue a decisive struggle in order to eradicate a terrorist threat in the region, – the Ministry of Defense emphasized.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that since 1984, when the militants of the RSC first 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).
