More than 30 Kurdish rebels said killed by Turkey

Turkey’s president says more than 30 Kurdish rebels have been killed overnight in a cross-border military operation in northern Iraq.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan also says that about 2,000 rebels have been killed in military offensives both in northern Iraq and in Turkey since violence between the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, and Turkish security forces flared up in July.

Erdogan vows on Tuesday to keep up the fight against the rebels, saying “there will be no complacency.”
