Turkish security forces neutralize 41 YPG/PKK members in northern Syria

The Defense Ministry commended the heroic efforts of the Turkish Armed Forces in neutralizing these terrorists, specifically targeting their strongholds in the Tel Rifaat and Manbij regions.

The statement reaffirmed Türkiye's firm commitment to eradicating the threat posed by these groups and holding them accountable for their actions within the base areas.

The term "neutralize," used by Turkish authorities, indicates that the armed group members were either captured, killed, or compelled to surrender during the operations. (ILKHA)
