Turkish warplanes have struck Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) terror bases in northern Iraq late Friday once again, a week after 37 people were killed in a car bombing in Ankara.
Turkish military said a total of 30 warplanes were involved in strikes on PKK targets late Friday and on Saturday morning. Ten military aircraft, including F-16, F-4 2020 jet fighters and tanker aircraft launched strikes against PKK targets in the Hakurk region in northern Iraq, the General Staff said.
The morning raids were conducted between 06:50 am and 07:40 am.
The General Staff said 20 military aircraft, including F-16, F-4 2020 jet fighters and tanker aircraft, launched strikes between 20:40 and 22:00 against PKK targets, including shelters and ammunition depots in Gara, Haftanin and Sinat regions late Friday.
Turkey has carried out hundreds of raids on the terrorist group's bases on both sides of the Iraq-Turkey border.
Turkey, the EU and the US regard the PKK as a terrorist organization.
