[IsraelTimes] IED planted on road near Iranian border goes off as military vehicle passes by, in kaboom that also wounds 4 ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... The governor’s office for the Hakkari province said that the improvised bomb was planted on a road near the town of Yuksekova, close to the border with Iran, and went off as a military vehicle was passing by. It blamed a "separatist terrorist organization" ‐ its official term for the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK). The maimed soldiers were transported to a hospital in Yusekova. There was no immediate information on their conditions. The Hurriyet newspaper said the military launched an operation, backed by air power, to catch the murderous Moslems. PKK rebels have waged a three-decade long insurgency in southeast Turkey. Violence flared again in 2015 after the collapse of a two-year grinding of the peace processor. |
