Turkey has carried out air strikes in the southeast and in northern Iraq, targeting Kurdish fighters.
Twenty jets took off from Diyarbakir air base late on Friday and bombed sites used by Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) for food and weapons support in Hakurk, Avasin and Qandil in northern Iraq, security sources said.
Two separate rounds of air bombardments were carried out in Sirnak province near the Iraq border after receiving an intelligence tip-off, the sources said.
The Turkish military has frequently carried out air strikes in the area in recent months after a two-and-a-half-year ceasefire and peace process between the government and the PKK broke down last summer.
Thousands people have been killed since then and a handful of cities in the predominantly Kurdish southeast have been engulfed in the worst violence since the 1990s.
