3 PKK/YPG members neutralized in northern Syria, Turkey’s Defense Ministry says

“3 PKK/YPG members, who attempt to infiltrate the area of Operation Peace Spring, were neutralized by our commandos,” the statement said.

Turkish Defense Ministry uses the word "neutralized" in its statements instead of "killed", "captured" or "surrendered".

The ongoing conflict between Turkey and PKK has resulted in nearly forty thousand deaths since 1984 when PKK waged an insurgency against Turkish State. (ILKHA)
