Turkish security sources indicated that Turkish air strikes killed three members of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) on Tuesday in the southeastern town of Semdinli near the borders with Iran and Iraq, according to Sky News TV channel.

The air strikes were conducted one day after PKK members detonated a car bomb near local government offices in the city of Van in northern Turkey, wounding 50 people including four police officers and four Iranian citizens, added the channel.

Southeastern Turkey has suffered numerous bombings since the PKK, which has waged a three-decade insurgency for Kurdish autonomy in the region, abandoned a ceasefire in 2015.
