ANKARA (AA) - Turkish security forces “neutralized” at least three terrorists in the country's east, the Interior Ministry announced on Friday.

The terrorists were targeted in the Gabar district of the eastern Sirnak province as part of Operation Eren Abluka Fall-Winter 12, an ongoing domestic anti-terror push, a ministry statement said.

The operation was carried out with the participation of police and gendarmerie forces as well as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), ATAK helicopter and close-range aerial support vehicles, Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu said on Twitter.

Turkish authorities use the term “neutralized” to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.

Türkiye initiated Eren operations last year, naming them after Eren Bulbul, a 15-year-old boy killed by the PKK terror group on Aug. 11, 2017.

The terrorists’ affiliation was not specified, but the terrorist PKK has been known to be active in the region.

In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US and EU – has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants.
