Turkish Armed Forces neutralized the seven YPG terrorists (Syrian wing of the RSC) discovered in the area of the operation “Shield of Euphrates” in the north of Syria. This is stated in the message of the Ministry of National Defense of Turkey, located on the social network.
The militants were neutralized as a result of a successfully conducted operation, the report said.
The department noted that the Turkish Armed Forces continue to fight terrorism.
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).
