The Ministry's social media post stated that 10 PKK members were "neutralized" - a term encompassing those killed, wounded or captured - in the Hakurk, Gara, and Claw-Lock Operation zones of northern Iraq. Additionally, 7 PKK/YPG members were neutralized in operations within Syria's Olive Branch and Peace Spring regions.

This announcement comes amidst ongoing tensions between Turkey and the PKK, which is designated as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the United States, and the European Union. Türkiye has carried out numerous military operations targeting PKK positions in both Iraq and Syria. (ILKHA)
