ANKARA (AA) – At least three YPG/PKK terrorists have surrendered to security forces in southeastern Turkey, the country’s National Defense Ministry said Thursday.
Two terrorists, who fled terror ranks in northern Iraq, turned themselves in at a border post in Sirnak province, the ministry said on Twitter.
The other terrorist, who fled the terror group in northern Syria, surrendered at a border post in Mardin province.
The ministry further affirmed that escapes from the terror group PKK continue.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and EU — has been responsible for the deaths of 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants. The YPG is the PKK's Syrian offshoot.
