At least three PKK terrorists were "neutralized" in an airstrike in northern Iraq, the Turkish army said on Thursday.
Turkish authorities often use the word "neutralized" in statements to imply the terrorists in question either surrendered, were killed or captured.
In a post on its official Twitter account, Turkish General Staff said the operation was conducted in Iraq's Metina region on Wednesday.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people, including women and children.
