At least two Turkish soldiers have been killed in a suspected attack by members of Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in southeastern Turkey.


Two Turkish troops had been also killed and 10 others injured in clashes between the PKK members and government troops in the southeastern province of Hakkari on July 30.

The PKK launched an armed campaign against Turkey in 1984 in a quest to gain independence for the Kurds living in the southeast of the country.
