As many as 80 PKK terrorists were killed and vehicles, an arsenal and caves were destroyed in airstrikes on the Metina region of Northern Iraq, the Turkish military said on Friday.
The operation were conducted on April 15 and 18-23 May, according to military sources.
Turkey has been conducting both air and ground operations against PKK terrorists in southeastern Turkey and Northern Iraq since July 2015, when the PKK took up arms again, ending the cease-fire with Ankara.
More than 5,000 terrorists have been neutralized both in Turkey and Northern Iraq, according to the recent official Turkish figures.
