Two soldiers were killed by a PKK terror attack in Turkey's eastern Van province's Çatak district, reports said on Friday.
Security forces were reportedly conducting search on the road leading to the village of Kaçıt when an explosion occurred, taking the lives of a sergeant and a village guard.
According to initial reports, the PKK has detonated an improvised explosive device (IED).
Ambulances have been dispatched to the area as it is assumed that several people were wounded.
Security forces have launched an air-supported operation to capture the terrorists.
Earlier this week, a PKK terror attack in Diyarbakır province killed three people.
