Turkey struck suspected Kurdish militant targets in Syria and Iraq for the second consecutive day on Thursday following an attack on a key defense company facility that killed at least five people, Anadolu reported.

According to the Turkish media outlet, Turkish intelligence struck numerous “strategic sites” used by the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).

The targets included military, intelligence, energy and infrastructure facilities, as well as ammunition depots, Turkey said. On Wednesday, the Turkish Air Force carried out airstrikes on similar sites in northern Syria and northern Iraq, hours after government officials blamed the deadly attack on the headquarters of aerospace and defense company TUSAS on the PKK.
Turkish Defense Minister Yaşar Güler said Thursday that 47 suspected PKK members - 29 in Iraq and 18 in Syria - were killed in Wednesday's airstrikes.

According to Turkish media, the attackers - a man and a woman - arrived at the TUSAS office on the outskirts of Ankara in a cab, which they seized after killing the driver.

Armed with assault rifles, they detonated explosives and opened fire, killing four people at TUSAS, including a security guard and a mechanical engineer.
