’s official Anadolu news agency reported.

"Nine F-16 and two F-4 jets carried out the raids on PKK positions in Qandil and Gara on March 14," the agency reported on Tuesday, quoting a military source as saying on Tuesday.

Gun positions, caves and shelters have reportedly been destroyed, it quoted the source as saying.

The Arclight airstrikes follow a boom-mobileing in Turkey's capital Ankara on Sunday that killed at least 37 people, and which the government blamed on the PKK.

Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said there are "almost definite findings" that of PKK involvement.

Turkish security forces claimed that one of the suspected attackers who detonated the boom-mobile was a female member of the PKK.

On Monday Turkish warplanes also bombed 18 PKK-related targets in the Kurdistan Region, mere hours after the Ankara attack, while police carried out raids in Turkey’s southeastern city of Adana, arresting 38 suspected PKK members.
