Turkish warplanes destroyed two PKK targets in anti-terror operations in northern Iraq on Thursday, killing three terrorists, Turkish military said.

According to the statement, the terrorists were killed in the Sinat-Haftanin and Zap regions of northern Iraq.

The PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S., and EU -- resumed its armed campaign in July 2015 and since then has been responsible for the deaths of around 1,100 security personnel and civilians, including women and children.
