Türkiye's National Intelligence Organization (MIT) "neutralized" a senior PKK/YPG terrorist in a cross-border operation in northern Syria, security sources said on Monday, SIA refers to Turkish media.
The Turkish intelligence targeted Muhtesim Akyurek, codenamed Serhat Serhildan, in an operation in the Amude region, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to restrictions on speaking to the media.
The intelligence agency closely followed the terrorist, who was responsible for training activities in the region.
Akyurek, who joined the rural structure of the terror group in 2015, received ideological and armed training.
Turkish authorities use the term "neutralize" to imply the terrorists in question surrendered or were killed or captured.
In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK — listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, and EU — has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants. The YPG is its Syrian offshoot.
