“6 PKK/YPG terrorists, who opened harassment fire and attempted to attack the Olive Branch and Peace Spring regions, were neutralized in a successful operation,” the statement said.
Turkish Defense Ministry uses the word “neutralized” in its statements instead of “killed”, ”captured” or “surrendered”. (ILKHA)
