Türkiye 'neutralizes' 3 PKK/YPG terrorists in northern Iraq

Terrorists were targeted in Operation Claw-Lock zone in northern Iraq, says National Defense Ministry

By Merve Berker

Turkish security forces "neutralized" three PKK/YPG terrorists in northern Iraq, the National Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.

Terrorists were targeted in a “sudden” air operation in the Operation Claw-Lock zone, the ministry said on X.

Turkish authorities use the term "neutralize" to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.

PKK terrorists often hide out in northern Iraq to plot cross-border attacks in Türkiye.

Türkiye in 2022 launched Operation Claw-Lock to target the terror group's hideouts in northern Iraq's Metina, Zap, and Avasin-Basyan regions.

In its 40-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, and EU – has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants. The YPG is PKK's Syrian offshoot.
