Turkey’s Air Force launched strikes on Kurdish targets in Iraq and Syria following an attack on the TUSAS aerospace and defence company near Ankara that killed 5 and wounded over 20. Turkey blames the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) for the assault. Defence Minister Yasar Guler confirmed 47 targets were hit, and 59 militants were "neutralised." The US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces reported civilian casualties from Turkish airstrikes in Syria. Turkey regularly targets PKK-affiliated groups in both countries, aiming to eliminate Kurdish militants.
