"Operation Yıldırım-11 Herekol" launched against PKK in southeastern Turkey

Turkish security forces have launched an operation against PKK members in Turkey's southeastern Siirt province, the country's Interior Ministry announced on Friday.

“More than 1,000 military personnel, including Gendarmerie Special Operations, Police Special Operations and Security Guards, are taking part in the operation," the Ministry said.

The ongoing conflict between Turkey and PKK has resulted in nearly forty thousand deaths since 1984 when PKK waged an insurgency against Turkish State.
