                    3 Turkish Soldiers Killed in PKK Attack

   by VOA News

   A car bomb attack in southeast Turkey has killed three soldiers.

   The military says 24 soldiers were wounded when the Kurdistan's Workers
   Party, or PKK, attacked the military post in Lice late Thursday.

   Turkey says more than 1,000 militants have been killed in the largely
   Kurdish southeast since a PKK cease-fire collapsed in July.

   President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said more than 300 members of the
   security forces have died, while the pro-Kurdish opposition says
   hundreds of civilians have also been killed.

   The PKK is designated a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United
   States and European Union.
