Three PKK neutralized in southeast Turkey, northern Iraq

Three PKK terrorists have been “neutralized” during separate operations in southeastern Turkey and northern Iraq, the military announced Tuesday.

Turkish authorities often use the word "neutralized" in their statements to imply the terrorists in question either surrendered or were killed or captured.

In a statement, the Turkish General Staff said the terrorists were neutralized Monday in northern Iraq’s Kani Rash regions and in the Lice district of southeastern Diyarbakir.
