Turkish armed
forces have ended an almost three-week operation against Kurdish
militants in the southeast region of Semdinli, bordering Iran and Iraq, and have killed "a large number" of fighters, the local governor said in a statement on Saturday.
Turkish jets have bombarded
Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) positions around the mountainous region in
one of most intense bouts of fighting in recent years in a decades-long
conflict which has killed 40,000 people.
