Turquie: Two policemen, seven Daesh terrorists killed
Two Turkish police forces and seven members of the Takfiri Daesh terrorist group have been killed in clashes in Turkey’s southeastern province of Diyarbakir, security sources say.
The development came early on Monday after police forces raided a dozen houses in the Kayapinar district of the mainly Kurdish province of Diyarbakir.
According to the sources, four policemen were injured and three militants were captured alive in the clashes.
Turkish security forces say they have extended operations to locate suspected Daesh cells following the October 10 twin blasts in the capital, Ankara, which killed more than 100 people.
The deadly explosions targeted activists who had gathered outside Ankara’s main train station for a peace rally organized by leftist and pro-Kurdish opposition groups. The Turkish government says 102 died in the bombings, but the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) puts the death toll at 128.
Following the blasts, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said the attack may have been carried out by Daesh terrorists or Syria’s Kurdish fighters…
