Turkish forces kill 19 PKK/YPG members in Iraq, northern Syria

The Ministry said in a statement that 15 PKK terrorists were "neutralized" in the Hakurk and Asos regions of northern Iraq. Turkish authorities use the term "neutralized" to imply the terrorists were killed, captured or surrendered.

Four additional PKK/YPG members were killed in the Euphrates Shield and Peace Spring regions of northern Syria, the statement added. (ILKHA)
