The Turkish authorities announced this Wednesday the “neutralization” of eight alleged members of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) in new bombings against northern Iraq, after the attack perpetrated last week against an aerospace company in the Turkish capital. , Ankara.
The Turkish Ministry of Defense has indicated in a message on its account on the social network from the neighboring country.
“Wherever the terrorist is, that’s where we target,” he said. “We will continue with unpredictable, unconventional, rapid and sustained operations to eliminate terrorism at its source,” he added, without the PKK commenting on this information.
The attacks come in the midst of the bombings carried out in recent days against targets in predominantly Kurdish areas in Iraq and Syria following the attack against the main facilities of the Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) company in Ankara, which left at least five dead. and 22 injured and whose responsibility was claimed by the PKK.
