Turkey vows ‘great revenge’ after 26 soldiers are killed
Turkish President Abdullah Gul said revenge would be "very great" for attacks carried out by suspected Kurdish rebels in southeastern Turkey early this morning, which killed 26 Turkish soldiers and wounded at least 16.
"No one should forget this, those that inflict this pain on us will endure far greater pain. Those that think they will weaken our state with these attacks or think they will bring our state into line, they will see that the revenge for these attacks will be very great and they will endure it many times over," Gul told reporters in Istanbul.
Meanwhile, Turkish troops killed 15 Kurdish militants in clashes that continued in southeast Turkey near the Iraqi border
