DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. July 28, 2016, 3:05 PM (IDT)
Five members of the Turkish security forces were killed in attacks by the PKK Kurdish underground in the southeastern cities of Siirt and Hakkari late Wednesday night. In Siirt, a roadside bomb was detonated by remote control as a police convoy passed, while in Hakkari a car bomb blew up at an army checkpoint. About 20 members of the security forces were wounded in the two attacks.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
