Turkish intelligence neutralizes senior PKK terrorist in northern Iraq
Behirdan Abi targeted in Sinjar region with surgical strike, security sources say
By Enes Kaplan
ANKARA (AA) - Turkiye's National Intelligence Organization (MIT) neutralized a senior PKK terrorist in northern Iraq, security sources said on Sunday.
Bedirhan Abi, codenamed Darav Gevda, was the target of a surgical strike in the Sinjar area, the sources noted.
The sources detailed that Abi, who joined the PKK in 2011, operated in southeastern Türkiye and northern Iraq and was involved in numerous attacks on security forces.
Turkish authorities use the term "neutralize" to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.
In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, EU, and the UK -- has been responsible for the deaths of more than 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants.
