Turkish jets kill '30 PKK terrorists' in northern Iraq

According to a statement posted on the Turkish General Staff website, Turkish warplanes carried out the airstrikes in the neighboring country’s Qandil region.

The terror group's bases in the Metina region were also bombed in a separate airstrike Saturday, which destroyed 11 PKK positions, including shelters and caves, the army added.

PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S., and EU – resumed its 30-year armed campaign against the Turkish state in July 2015.

Since then, more than 450 Turkish security personnel have been martyred and over 4,500 PKK terrorists killed.
