In the Pençe-Kilit anti-terrorist operation zone, five PKK terrorists are neutralized in the north of Iraq. On Wednesday, June 21, the Ministry of National Defense of Turkey reported.
“For terrorists, there is no safe place in the north of Iraq or in the north of Syria. We are determined to eradicate this problem by destroying all terrorists fundamentally,” the department emphasizes.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that since 1984, when the militants of the RSC for the first time had carried out a bloody crime in Turkey, and until March 2020, 7,500 security forces of Turkey and 6,800 civilians were killed at the hands of this bloody organization.
The United States and the European Union introduced PKK to the lists of terrorist organizations.
Despite Ankara’s attempts to find ways to settle the situation, the PKK terrorist organization has resumed armed attacks since July 2015.
In recent years, PKK seeks to shift responsibility for bloody crimes in the region to its branches.
In Syria, PKK terrorists are covered by the names Pyd and YPG, and in the last two years they call themselves “Syrian democratic forces.”
In Iran, PKK acts as “Party of Free Life of Kurdistan” (pjak).
