"Border War in Turkey
April 26, 2007: So far this spring the Turkish military has been very effective in limiting PKK guerilla operations to areas in southeastern Turkey and along the Iraqi border. Apparently, Turkish troops have been ambushing squad-sized PKK units (three to ten fighters) as they leave mountain hideouts in Turkey, or move across the border from Iraq. The PKK can still infiltrate into Turkey, mine roads, and engage in firefights, but the level of resistance presents no grave military threat. Still, Turkey claims that the PKK have approximately 2,000 fighters inside Turkey, and that is not an insignificant number of armed men threatening the peace."
