The fighting in Yuksekova district saw security forces capture weapons including an anti-aircraft gun.

Earlier Tuesday, the Turkish military said 12 PKK members were killed Monday in the same district.

Turkey has been conducting operations against the PKK since late July, when a two-and-a-half year lull in the fighting ended.

Since then more than 150 members of the security forces have been martyred while, according to the government, more than 2,000 PKK terrorists have been killed.
