Turkish army destroys 30 YPG/PKK targets in northern Syria: Defense Ministry

Turkish forces destroyed 30 targets in northern Syria belonging to the YPG/PKK terrorist group on Thursday, including oil wells and shelters, said Türkiye’s National Defense Ministry.

An air operation was carried out against terrorist targets in the Tal Rifat, Jazira and Al-Malikiyah regions at 11 p.m. local time, the ministry said in a statement.

Security forces destroyed a total of 30 targets including oil wells and storage facilities used by the separatist terrorist organization and caves, bunkers, shelters and warehouses, which were considered to contain senior terrorists, it added.

In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK has been responsible for the deaths of more than 40,000 people, including women, children and infants. The YPG is its Syrian branch.
