Kurdistan CT says Turkish drone killed nine PKK members in Kurdistan Region
2023-10-28
[Rudaw] At least nine suspected members of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) were killed and several others injured during Ottoman Turkish strikes on their positions last night in the Kurdistan Region’s Erbil and Duhok provinces, Erbil-based Kurdish counterterrorism forces said on Thursday.

"Nine PKK fighters were killed in a series of strikes carried out by Ottoman Turkish warplanes and drones on several positions in Sidakan district of Erbil province last night," the Erbil-based Directorate General of Counter Terrorism (CTD), also known as Kurdistan CT, said in a statement on Facebook.

It added that an additional PKK fighter was killed and three others maimed as Ottoman Turkish warplanes bombarded Duhok province’s Shiladze and Deraluk subdistricts.

Kurdistan CT is unofficially linked to the ruling Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) - which has had rocky relations with the PKK for decades. There have been festivities between KDP-affiliated Peshmerga forces and PKK fighters in bordering areas in recent years over land control.
