22 PKK members killed in the last 24 hours: Turkish Defense Minister
At least 22 PKK members were killed in Turkey’s ongoing operations in Syria and Iraq in the last 24 hours, the country’s Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said on Sunday.
“A total of 22 terrorists were neutralized in 24 hours, including 14 who tried to infiltrate the area of Operation Peace Spring, 6 in our Air Force's operation in Gara and 2 in Hakurk,” Akar said.
The ongoing conflict between Turkey and PKK members has resulted in nearly forty thousand deaths since 1984 when PKK waged an insurgency against the Turkish State. (ILKHA)
