土耳其空军对该国东南部的库尔德工人党目标进行空袭。这是双边在两年前展开和平进程以来,土耳其政府首次对库尔德工人党发动重大空袭。

土耳其《每日新闻报》报道,军方战机星期天轰炸了库尔德工人党在哈卡里省的目标。

报道称空袭是为了报复库尔德工人党在该地区对土耳其军事哨所的攻击。土耳其国内正因为政府对打击伊斯兰国不够积极而出现紧张局势。

最近几个星期,抗议民众要求政府出兵打击在边界附近包围科巴尼的伊斯兰国武装。

库尔德工人党上个月呼吁所有库尔德人武装起来,捍卫库尔德人口占多数的科巴尼。

在土耳其政府与库尔德工人党间的冲突,也使得双边在2012年展开的和平进程陷入危机。此前,安卡拉政府与库尔德反叛分子间长达30年的战斗,导致4万多人死亡。

Media reports in Turkey say government warplanes have bombed Kurdish nationalist rebels in southeast of the country in the first significant air operation against the group since peace talks began two years ago.

The Hurriyet newspaper says the jets hit Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) targets in Hakkari province on Sunday.

The bombings are said to be a response to shootings by the PKK at a military outpost in the area. They come amid increased internal tension over Turkey's inaction against the Islamic State.

Protesters in recent weeks have called for the Turkish military to intervene across the Syrian border, where IS militants have surrounded Kobani.

The PKK issued a call to arms in September for Kurds to defend the largely Kurdish town.

The renewed conflict between Turkey and the PKK jeopardizes a fragile peace process launched by Ankara and rebel leadership in 2012 after three decades of insurgency killed more than 40,000 people.
