Turkish forces in northeastern Anatolian continued to hunt down PKK
militants on Sunday and in clashes killed four militants and lost
one soldier, military sources reported.
This time the clashes were carried to the northeastern border area
of Kars where the PKK militants are said to be fleeing to Armenia.
Another Turkish soldier was wounded during the clashes in
Kars. Operations are under way in the region, it added.
Turkey and most of the international community, including the EU and
the U.S., consider the PKK a terrorist organization. Turkey launched
a major eight-day ground incursion against the PKK in February,
sending thousands of troops into Iraq.
