ISTANBUL (AA) - Türkiye's National Intelligence Organization (MIT) “neutralized” Hezal Belge, a senior figure in the PKK/YPJ terrorist organization who was planning a suicide bombing in Türkiye, according to security sources.
The terrorist was targeted in an operation in Syria’s Amude region, near the Turkish border, the sources said.
Turkish authorities use the term "neutralize" to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.
In its 40-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, and the EU – has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children, infants, and the elderly.
