ANKARA: Turkish airstrikes have killed four PKK terrorists in northern Iraq, the General Staff said Saturday.
According to a Turkish General Staff statement, the airstrikes were carried out in the Avasin Basyan region.
In recent days Turkish officials have suggested that the Mt. Qandil region, where the terrorist group has its headquarters, may be the target of a future operation.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the death of some 40,000 people.
