Turkish Drone Strike Eliminates Senior PKK Members in Northern Iraq

A Turkish drone strike killed three PKK members, including a senior member, his driver, and a guard, near Sulaimaniya in northern Iraq. The attack, part of Turkey's ongoing operations against the PKK, highlights the continued conflict that began in 1984.

A Turkish drone strike on Friday resulted in the deaths of three members of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in northern Iraq, according to a statement from Iraqi Kurdistan's counter-terrorism service.

The statement confirmed that the strike targeted a PKK vehicle near the city of Sulaimaniya. Among the deceased were a senior PKK member, his driver, and a guard.

Turkey has consistently conducted air strikes on PKK forces in northern Iraq and maintains numerous outposts within Iraqi territory. The PKK has been engaged in an armed struggle against the Turkish state since 1984.
