Turkish warplanes carried out airstrikes on suspected Kurdish militant targets in northern Iraq on Sunday following a suicide attack on a government building in the Turkish capital, Turkey's defense ministry announced.
Some 20 targets of the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, were "destroyed" in the latest aerial operation, including caves, shelters and depots, the ministry said, adding that a large number of PKK operatives were "neutralized" in the strikes.
Earlier on Sunday, a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device near an entrance of the Ministry of Interior Affairs, wounding two police officers. A second assailant was killed in a shootout with police.
