Turkey says soldier killed in clashes with PKK in Duhok, PKK sez they got 3
|
[Rudaw] The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) on Tuesday claimed to have killed three Ottoman Turkish soldiers in the Kurdistan Region, a day after Ankara announced the death of one of its soldiers following festivities with the gang.
The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
’s defense ministry on Monday said one of their soldiers was killed in the "Operation Claw-Lock" areas that cover the Metina, Zap, Avashin, and Basyan areas in Kurdistan Region’s Duhok province.
The PKK claims to have killed three Ottoman Turkish soldiers and damaged two helicopters, according to reports by media affiliate Firat News Agency (ANF).
Ankara has in the past few years intensified its campaign to eliminate the presence of PKK fighters around its borders, launching several operations in the Kurdistan Region as well as Syria where it claims to target proxies of the group.
In 2019, Turkey launched Operation Claw against the PKK in Khakurk. This was followed by Operation Claw-Tiger in June 2020. The third edition of the offensive was a ground and air cross-border operation, dubbed Operation Claw-Lightning and Operation Claw-Thunderbolt, launched in April 2021 focused on the PKK’s positions in the Kurdistan Region’s Duhok province.
