June 18, 2008 ANKARA -- Artillery units killed most of a 21-member Kurdish rebel group in northern Iraq as it moved toward the Turkish border, the military said yesterday. The military's website said the shelling had rendered the group, which was trying to sneak into Turkey, "ineffective" - a term used by the military to refer to killed rebels. The military has launched several aerial cross-border attacks on suspected rebel positions in Iraq this year. The Kurdistan Workers' Party has been fighting for self-rule in southeastern Turkey.
