KARS, Turkey (AA) – President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said a hundred terrorists were 'neutralized' in operations against the PKK terrorist group across Turkey last week.
Addressing a crowd in Turkey's northeast Kars province, Erdogan said: “If they [PKK] continue their efforts on dividing this country, those hundred will be 200, 300, 1,000. ”
“Nobody should think that they can separate our territorial integrity, ” Erdogan said. “They should know that we will continue to bomb them with F-16 jets, like we did it Mount Cudi, Mount Tendurek and Mount Qandil. ”
The PKK — recognized as a terrorist group by Turkey, the U.S., and the EU — has taken thousands of lives in decades of attacks in Turkey, including 1,200 since July 2015 alone.
