Turkish planes attack PKK bases in northern Iraq
Turkish aircraft have attacked 60 sites in northern Iraq used as bases by the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in a "successful" operation, military headquarters said in a statement.
It followed an attack by the rebel group that killed nine Turkish troops.
The statement said the military would press ahead with strikes until the rebels were "rendered ineffective".
The aircraft involved in the operation all returned safely to their bases in Turkey, it added.
Fourteen soldiers were injured in the attack by the Kurdish separatist militants in the district of Cukurca, in Hakkari province close to the Iraqi border, on Wednesday.
Officials and Turkish media said the vehicle of the troops who died was hit by a roadside bomb or mine. There were also reports of a shoot-out.
The PKK said they had carried out the attack.
