ANKARA (AA) – Turkish jets neutralized at least four PKK terrorists as part of an anti-terror operation in northern Iraq, the military said on Sunday.

In a written statement, the Turkish General Staff said the airstrikes were carried out in the Hakurk and Zap regions on Saturday.

The strikes also destroyed shelters and ammunition depots belonging to the terrorists, the statement added.

In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people.
