SIIRT, Turkey (AA) - At least one PKK terrorist was killed and another was captured during counterterrorism operations in the southeastern Siirt province on Thursday, according to local officials.
The operation in the district of Eruh remains ongoing, according to a statement by the Siirt Governor's Office.
Separately, three female PKK terrorists surrendered to Turkish security forces in southeastern Mardin’s Nusaybin district along the Syrian border, security sources said.
In its 30-year-plus terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the death of nearly 40,000 people, including women and children.
