Turkish military says 15 PKK militants killed in southeast: broadcaster

Fifteen militants of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) were killed in clashes in Turkey's southeastern Sirnak province, broadcaster NTV reported, citing the Turkish military, Reuters reports.

Turkey has been clashing with militants in sweeps across the southeast, which has seen some of the worst fighting since the height of the insurgency in the 1990s.
