Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Turkish Army in Iran fighting the PKK
2006-07-22
The lousy English is theirs.
Turkish troops entered the Iranian territories to prevent the PKK terrorist attacks in coordination with the Iranian authorities. Turkish troops based near the Iraqi borders in Iran. Iran supports Turkey's possible military operation in North Iraq. Turkey argues that it has all the self-defence right.

Turkish daily Aksam wrote on Friday that Turkey and Iran continue the military operations against the PKK. According to Aksam daily the Turkish troops based near Hoy (Khovoy) and Mirgever towns.

Time to time Iranian airforce contribute to the Turkish operations against the PKK. Iran had made military operations against the PKK camps in Iraq in the past.
The article continues at length with a big screed against the U.S. for not letting the Turks run around in Iraq ad lib to whack the PKK.

#2  another front in the war on terror. For some reason, the Turks manage to make everyone think they are just busting a few heads and instead of Erdogan's blatant delusions of gradeur. Why no one else seems to be taking notice of his true intentions is beyond me. More nonsense about how the military will step in I suppose. And Clinton will appease the terrorists any day now.... oh wait, that was yesterday - this is today.
