Turkey’s security forces “neutralized” more than a dozen YPG/PKK terrorists near the Turkish border in northern Syria, according to the National Defence Ministry on Thursday (15 June).
The Turkish Armed Forces neutralized 16 additional terrorists who carried out an attack in the Tal Rifat and Manbij districts.
With the most recent counter-terrorism operation, the number of terrorists “neutralized” in the region increased to 57.
The term “neutralize” is used by Turkish authorities to signify that the terrorists in issue surrendered, were killed, or were apprehended.
