4 PKK terrorists ‘neutralized’ in southeastern Turkey

Terrorists targeted in domestic anti-terror operation in Sirnak province

By Orhan Onur Gemici

ANKARA (AA) - At least four PKK terrorists were neutralized in a domestic anti-terror operation in southeastern Turkey, the country's Interior Ministry said on Monday.

In a statement, the ministry said the armed terrorists were targeted by local gendarmerie forces in the Beytussebap district of the Sirnak province during Operation Eren-13.

The armed unmanned aerial vehicle of the gendarmerie forces was also used in the operation.

The ministry added that operations in the region are ongoing.

Turkish authorities often use the word "neutralized" in statements to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.

Operation Eren, named after Eren Bulbul, a 15-year-old killed by the terrorist PKK on Aug. 11, 2017, began in January to eliminate terrorism in the country.

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