The operation launched at Friday night at Bagok Mountain continued with a long-continued clash where two guerrillas are claimed to have lost their lives. The bodies claimed to be of guerrillas were brought to Nusaybin State Hospital’s morgue.

The still ongoing operation at Kato Mountain of Beytüssebap/Sýrnak is reportedly supported by Bolu Mountain Commando Brigade troops. While the region of Sütlüce/Dersim Gendarme Station was dropped along the night, one other report informs of special operation units transferred to the Pülümür Valley at early morning hours.

All the ways to Sýrnak city center and the Beytüssebap district have been taken under the control of Gendarme Regimental Commandry units.

While there has been an intense transfer of military units to Pülümür Valley and Harçik village rural, there are yet no reports of conflicts apart from the shooting sounds on occasion. The operation in the region continues to spread.
