The Turkish Armed Forces launched a new operation against the militants of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) terrorist organization in Turkey’s Argi, Kars and Igdir provinces bordering Armenia, Azvision.az reports on Sept. 26 referring to a report of the Turkish Ministry of National Defense.

Reportedly, the KIRAN-4 operation is being carried out.

“The operation will be carried out until terrorists are fully destroyed in these territories,” the ministry said.
