ANKARA (AA) - Turkish security forces defused a bomb planted in a truck in Syria’s northern Jerablus region, bordering Türkiye, the Turkish Interior Ministry said on Saturday.
According to the ministry, police received a tip that the truck carrying a bomb was left on June 21 in the border town by PKK/YPG terrorists to be used in terror activities.
A bomb disposal squad reached the site and defused the bomb.
In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, UK and EU – has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children and infants.
