The Ministry also confirmed that these operations will persist until the final terrorist is neutralized. The ongoing military campaign underscores Turkey's commitment to securing its borders and countering terrorist threats in the region.
Türkiye’s ongoing counterterrorism operations demonstrate its steadfast dedication to eradicating terrorist threats and maintaining regional stability. The Turkish authorities use the term "neutralized" to refer to terrorists who have been killed, captured, or surrendered.
The PKK, recognized as a terrorist group by Türkiye, the US, and the EU, has led a prolonged insurgency against Türkiye, causing over 40,000 fatalities, including women and children.
