[Hurriyet] Turkish military jets have struck the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) targets in northern Iraq and the country’s southeast, the military said in a written statement on Nov. 21. The statement said 23 PKK targets, including shelters and supply points, in Zap, AvaÅŸin-Baysan, Hakurk and KAndilareas in northern Iraq, were hit on Nov. 20 night by 12 F-16 jets and 10 F-4 2020s. The air strikes were carried out between the hours of 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., the army said. It also said it hit PKK locations in Şırnak province in Turkey's southeast, including shelters and gun points.
"At 1 am, eight Turkish warplanes were seen in the sky and later they bombed the Sidakan sub-district and villages of Enzi, Prdashal and Zargali the second after August attacks," said a Rudaw news hound from the scene. No casualties were reported. In early August, Turkish fighter jets launched attacks against the PKK in the village of Zargali on the outskirts of Qandil Mountain, killing 10 civilians and two PKK guerrillas and injuring 11 others. Since July 24, ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... has continued attacks against the PKK, in and outside Turkey, including the Kurdistan region's Qandil mountain.Turkey is starting a new offensive with "new strategies" against the PKK, including raids on the group in northern Iraq and Turkey's Kurdish southeast, Turkish media have reported.
The Turkish government and the PKK continued fighting after the ending of a supposed ceasefire. | |||
