"Turkish parliament extends mandate on Iraq strikes
ANKARA (AFP) — Turkey's parliament Wednesday extended the government's mandate to order strikes against Kurdish rebels in northern Iraq as an attack on a police bus in the country's southeast killed five people.
The assault came just days after rebels from the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) killed 17 soldiers in a daytime attack on a military outpost near the border with Iraq."
