From Fox News:
ANKARA, Turkey — Turkish warplanes and artillery units have hit Kurdish rebel positions in northern Iraq, following a rebel raid on a military outpost in Turkey, the military said Sunday.
Targets in Saturday’s raids included an area just across the border where rebels had allegedly gathered after attacking the military station in Hakkari province, near the Iraq border, the military said in a statement posted on its Web site.
Six soldiers and 19 rebels were killed in that attack and military airstrikes that followed, the military said. The rebels denied suffering any losses.
In its statement, the military said artillery units and attack aircraft “intensely and effectively” struck rebel targets in the Avasin-Basyan area in northern Iraq on Saturday.
