Turkish warplanes destroyed some 12 outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) targets in an air strike conducted late on Dec. 11 in northern Iraq, the Turkish Armed Forces has announced.

During a 50-minute air operation in the Zap region, some 12 PKK targets, including a command center and gun emplacements nearby, were destroyed with 24 shots, the military said.

The air strike comes just hours after the Kurdistan Freedom Hawks (TAK), an offshoot linked to the PKK, claimed responsibility for the Dec. 10 twin bombings in Istanbul, which killed 38 people and wounded another 155.
