Ankara, (IINA) - Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus said on Tuesday that his government is ready to support citizens in southeastern Turkey where an anti-PKK operation is ongoing, Anadolu Agency reported.
“Any kind of support will be given to all citizens affected by terrorism”, Kurtulmus said in a televised interview, noting that life would return to normal in the areas where the operations are ongoing.
Several towns in Turkey’s southeast are under curfew as Turkish security forces combat the PKK terrorist organization.
The PKK, which is considered as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S., and the EU, has resumed its armed campaign in late July.
Since then, more than 200 members of the security forces have been martyred and over 1,700 PKK terrorists killed.
