Turkish Armed Forces have neutralized 14 Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) terrorists in air strikes in northern Iraq on Saturday, the military said in a statement.
Six terrorists were killed around the area of Sinat-Haftan and eight in the countryside around Adiyaman in two separate air strikes, the military said.
The PKK terror organization has sanctuaries in the mountains of northern Iraq, near the Turkish border.
Turkey has stepped up attacks against the PKK in northern Iraq and its Syrian affiliate PYD, in recent weeks.
The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU. It has waged a terror campaign against Turkey for more than 30 years, during which more than 40,000 people have lost their lives.
More than 1,200 people, including security force personnel and civilians, have lost their lives since the PKK-- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and EU -- resumed its decades-old armed campaign in July 2015.
