Turkey’s military carried out airstrikes targeting Kurdish militants in northern Iraq on Sunday, just hours after the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) claimed responsibility for a deadly bombing in the capital in the latest attack of its nearly four-decade long insurgency.

In a statement, the Turkish Defense Ministry said its warplanes destroyed 20 PKK targets including caves, bunkers, shelters and warehouses in the regions of Metina, Hakurk, Kandil, and Gara.

“Many terrorists were neutralized by using the maximum amount of domestic and national ammunition,” said the statement, which cited self-defense rights from Article 51 of the United Nations Charter to justify the strikes.

The PKK, which is classified as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States, and the European Union, earlier said it was behind the blast Sunday outside Turkey’s Interior Ministry building that left one dead and two injured, the pro-PKK Firat News Agency reported.

The ministry said in a statement that two attackers murdered a civilian and stole his vehicle ahead of the opening of parliament in Ankara. Two police officers reportedly received non-life-threatening injuries.

One assailant blew himself up and the other was “neutralized,” the ministry said.

Investigators found four different types of guns, three hand grenades, one rocket launcher, and C-4 explosives at the scene.

The ministry confirmed at least one of the two attackers is a PKK member. The second attacker has yet to be identified, it said.

Kurds, who do not have an official homeland or country, are the biggest minority in Turkey, making up between 15% and 20% of the population, according to Minority Rights Group International.

Portions of Kurdistan – a non-governmental region and one of the largest stateless nations in the world – are recognized by Iran, where the province of Kordestan lies; and Iraq, site of the northern autonomous region known as Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) or Iraqi Kurdistan.

According to Ankara, the PKK trains separatist fighters and launches attacks against Turkey from its bases in northern Iraq and Syria, where a PKK-affiliated Kurdish group controls large swaths of territory.

Terror attacks in Turkey were tragically common in the mid to late 2010s, when the insecurity from war-torn Syria crept north above the two countries’ shared border.

And in November last year, Ankara blamed the PKK for a bomb attack on a central pedestrian boulevard in Istanbul that killed six and injured dozens.

In recent years, Turkey has carried out a steady stream of operations against the PKK domestically as well as cross-border operations into Syria.

In an address to lawmakers Sunday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed that Turkey would continue its fight against terrorism “until the last terrorist is eliminated domestically and abroad.”

Sunday’s attack marked the “final flutters of terrorism” in the country, he added.

WHEN IS PAKISTAN GOING TO START RESPECTING ITSELF LIKE THIS? OR ARE THERE NO MEN WITH BALLS LEFT?
 
Sorry to say but our (Pakistani) military-civillian leadership is like giving nuclear weapons and a potent air force/army to some fucking cowards and soft women.

So much potential that other countries could only dream of but these mfs act like sissy transgenders

One small blast in Turkey had 20 different locations targeted across the border

Mfs in Pakistan don't care when we have casualties going into the 100s with constant blasts

The people like MMME despite being retarded understood that Americans have been strengthening PKK but Pakistanis still struggle to whitewash American crimes.

What are you referring to specifically? Which event?

I constantly criticise our military leadership even in this thread. The civilian leadership is useless it's worth less than the dirt on the bottom of anyone's shoe no point in discussing that
 
Thanks to the operations we have carried out in the last 5 years and the developing technology of the military, terrorist organizations can now only carry out symbolic attacks but they even fail in that. Hopefully there will be retaliation with ground operation in Syria too

Gandoo generals
Hijra population
 
Turkey gets hit by one failed terrorist attack, 20 airstrikes in Iraq he next day.

Meanwhile 60 Pakistanis killed by Afghanis in 24 hours but the cuckold hijras in Pakistani establishment will open the border for trade.

Merit system vs Chutya feudal system

@CENTCOM Your B team is performing very poorly and cowardly. Tell em to launch strikes in Afghandustan or efff off.

when another APS happens and the public forces their hand. Maybe its time to form a militia even to do what the generals refuse to.

When the government jails the only politician with balls to order operations and raids against terrorists,what do you expect?

Please don't tell me you are referring to Imran Khan because he was the exact opposite of that...

He wanted to open offices for them, rehabilitate them, and was acting like a soft pussy towards a chauvinistic Afghanistan that literally took advantage of his pacifism and laughed in his face as they celebrated terrorist attacks

Imran Khan (and generally all pacifists in Pakistan) are like that one kid in a group of friends who get laughed at and mocked by their peers but naively think people are laughing at their jokes instead of *at them*
