Turkey’s government says its military struck sites on Wednesday night in Iraq and Syria linked to Kurdish militant group PKK, after blaming it for an attack near Ankara that killed at least five people, the BBC reports.
Various videos from the attack on Wednesday show at least two people firing guns around the entrance of Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), which is located some 40km (25 miles) outside the capital.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, in which 22 people were injured.
“A total of 32 targets belonging to the terrorists were successfully destroyed” in the retaliatory attack, the Turkish defense ministry said in a statement.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called the attack on TAI “heinous” in a post on X.
Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said that two attackers, a woman and a man, had been “neutralized”, adding that the attack had most likely involved the PKK.
