Recent information from the attack by fighters of the PKK in the region Gediktepe checkpoint between the villages of Tekeli, Günyazı and Ortaklar Şemdinli the city on the border between Turkey and Iraq indicate that so far the Turkish losses are 12 killed and 16 wounded. As stated in Turkish sources Kurdish fighters had to ensure the mining of roads leading to the outpost were attacked, leading the convoy carrying aid for it to suffer significant losses from their mines.
Since this operation also killed two soldiers and two wounded. A total of eight helicopters used to transport the dead and injured in that area is near the border between Turkey and Iraq. The company started in two after midnight, involved 250 PKK militants who attacked from three directions, while the battle lasted until seven in the morning, a total of 5 hours.
According to the Turkish Defence losses of combatants is 12 dead. Under sections were transported by helicopter from the 3rd Battalion of the mountain commando brigade based in Semdili. The dense fog that prevailed, but in the night and contributed to the support by attack helicopters to be inadequate. With the first light of day, the PKK members who participated in the operation returned to their bases in N. Iraq
With new information from Kurdish sources, the Turkish army losses from unexpected combinations of the PKK operation of almost 20 dead and 19 wounded. But a video posted on the internet shows the continuous transport of injured to hospital in the region. Noteworthy that the company is the large number of fighters PPK in the company (250 people) and the fact that the majority of them came from one of the best-guarded areas of the region according to the Turkish Army.
After so many losses with a total of 66 deaths in four months and 108 wounded raises serious questions about the quality of the Turkish Army especially when the area routinely employed units manned by professional soldiers. It also raises questions about the equipment and the Turks who, despite the large markets of the war with Kurdish fighters failed as failed and the fall of 2008 to identify the early attacking Kurdish forces, which in both cases numbered hundreds of men throughout equipment.
In another incident Friday, a Turkish militiaman was killed and three more injured in crossfire with Turkish soldiers in a mountain village of Semdinli Uğuraçan city in the province of Hakkari.
Group village guards moved to a military convoy of cars headed toward the outpost in Aktutun Stratochorofylakis in order to provide protection. The Turks, however, soldiers saw the convoy apparently PKK fighters and opened fire causing the death of one guard and wounding three more.
