Turkey Launches Operation in Iraq
Turkey has begun a major cross-border military offensive, targeting Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) militants in the northern part of Iraq.
The operation involves an extensive airstrike campaign using jets, helicopters, and drones, as well as a ground incursion by commando troops, the ministry has announced.
Ankara claims it successfully destroyed multiple bunkers, tunnels, and ammunition depots, as well as military headquarters of the PKK in northern Iraq’s border areas of Metina, Zap, and Avashin-Basyan, before ground forces moved into the neighboring state. It's unclear how many troops and military hardware are involved in the operation.
