Turkish forces bombard Mount Metina in Duhok province
|
[Rudaw] Ottoman Turkish warplanes on Saturday bombarded Mount Metina in Duhok province without causing casualties, a villager told Rudaw.
Fayeq Balavayi from Balava village said he saw Ottoman Turkish air forces bombarding the nearby Mount Metina at noon, adding that the bombardment continued for hours.
No civilians were harmed because the targeted area is banned from civilians due to frequent festivities between Ottoman Turkish army and the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) there.

but it is listed as a terrorist group by Ankara.
Turkey has recently upped its attacks against the PKK in the Kurdistan Region. It has also intensified its targeting of Kurdish fighters in northern Syria due to their alleged ties with the PKK.
Baghdad has repeatedly condemned Turkey’s violations of its borders and called on gangs not to use Iraqi territory to attack neighbouring nations. Civilians are frequently caught in the crossfire between Ottoman Turkish forces and the PKK and hundreds of villages have been emptied with families moving in search of safety.
PKK announced a unilateral ceasefire in February due to devastating quakes in Turkey and later extended it to include the Ottoman Turkish elections period. The group ended the truce earlier this month.
Turkey's warplanes bombed sites of the anti-Ankara Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in Duhok's northern district of Amadiyah, a source reported on Saturday.

s," the source told Shafaq News Agency.
"The size of damages is not immediately clear," the source concluded.
