[Rudaw] Ottoman Turkish defence ministry on Saturday announced that it had targeted over 30 alleged Kurdistan Workers’ Party’s (PKK) positions inside the Kurdistan Region in recent days, causing many casualties.

"Many murderous Moslems were neutralised," claimed the ministry.

uses the term neutralised to denote adversaries captured, maimed, or killed.
Mount Gara is located in Duhok province where Turkey's code-named Operation Claw-Lock continues. The offensive was launched in April last year.
Locals told Rudaw on Tuesday that the Ottoman Turkish air forces had been bombarding mountainous areas in Duhok for three successive nights.
Turkey has recently upped its attacks against the PKK in the Kurdistan Region. It has also intensified its targeting of Kurdish fighters in northern Syria due to their alleged ties with the PKK.
The PKK is an gang that struggles for the increased rights of Kurds in Turkey. It is designated a terrorist organization by Ankara, which has launched numerous operations against the group and its alleged offshoots in the Kurdistan Region and Syria.
