In Turkey, PKK ambush leaves two killed
 [Iran Press TV Latest] An attack by the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) insurgents on a military unit in southern Turkey has left a Turkish soldier and a militant dead. The incident which was PKK's first armed attack since Ankara said it planned to pass pro-Kurdish reforms, also left a soldier wounded in the southern province of Hatay, state news agency Anatolian said on Saturday. The Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and head of the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party Ahmet Turk met last week to discuss measures aimed at reducing years of conflict between the Turkish state and its Kurdish population.
