Turk forces kill rebels
2006-06-19
TUNCELI: Turkish forces killed three Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) guerrillas in eastern Turkey on Sunday, while a bomb on a rail track wrecked a cargo train in the same region, military officials said. Soldiers, supported from the air, attacked a group of 13 Kurdish guerrillas in the mountainous province of Tunceli and killed three, an army official said. The operation continued with extra troops being sent to the area. Earlier on Sunday, PKK members laid a bomb on a rail track which exploded as a cargo train passed, flipping 12 carriages and leaving eight unusable, another military official said.
