'Turkey's Semzinan under PKK control'
The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) says it has taken control of the Semzinan district in Turkey's southeastern province of Hakkari.

The development comes two days after a Turkish soldier was killed and seven others injured during an attack allegedly carried out by the PKK members in the western province of Izmir on August 9.

The Turkish army has been involved in a ground and air operation on Semzinan over the past several days.

Two Turkish soldiers were killed and ten others injured in clashes between the PKK members and government troops in Hakkari on July 30.

On August 5, 22 people, including six Turkish soldiers, two village guards and 14 PKK members, were killed in clashes that broke out after the Kurdish rebels attacked a Turkish military post in a village in Hakkari on the border with Iraq.
On December 29, 2011, 35 people were killed in a Turkish air strike near a Kurdish village in the Uludere district of Sirnak Province close to the border with Iraq. The Turkish military said it had targeted suspected members of the PKK. However, Turkish officials later acknowledged that “civilians” were killed during the attack.

Valilik açıklamasında, "Titizlik ve kararlılıkla sürdürülen operasyonlar sonucunda, PKK terör örgütü, hain amaçlarına ulaşamamış ve çok sayıda PKK terör örgütü mensubu etkisiz hale getirilmiştir. Mülki adli ve askeri makamlar eşliğinde operasyonun son gününde bölgede ziyaret ve inceleme yapılmış, vatandaşlarımızın köylerinde, yerlerinde normal hayatlarını sürdürdükleri müşahede edilmiştir.

PressTv Lol....

 

[Alienoz_TR]

Similar thing things happened in early 90's, it became cause for harsh response from Turkish military. Uprising surpressed.

Turkish army can deal with uprisings, but Syrians cannot. That is the difference.

Haha, pressTV, keep trying and dreaming.

Such thing can happen, PKK used to control town centers during early 90's by pinning down military structure under heavy fire. Every time they tried, they retreated back to Iraqi and İranian mountains suffering 1000's casualties.

Serdar Akinan's Kan Uykusu is a good documentary. 1993-95 was wake-up of Turkish army, taking over mountains and starting crossborder operations. There was once planned Iranian crossborder operation which was cancelled by Demirel.
