In a written statement on Tuesday, the Press Liaison Centre of the People’s Defense Forces (HPG) said: “Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla continues to strike a blow to the occupying Turkish army. On 4 April, the occupying Turkish army sent a selective unit, consisting of lieutenants and senior lieutenants, towards our war tunnels in Girê Cûdî Resistance Area. These invaders were taken under control by our forces, first shot with sabotage tactics and then intervened with individual weapons. Our forces confiscated 1 SAR-56 individual weapon and materials from the occupiers who were killed here. However, the occupying Turkish army concealed its losses here as usual. It was determined that the SAR-56 individual weapon removed from the killed invaders had the serial number TCK 1102-22CK00541.
