At least one Turkish soldier was killed in a clash with Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) guerillas today.

The clash broke out in Semdinli, a town of Hakkari province, as Turkish army conducts a military operation against Kurdish guerillas.

Turkish media reported killing of one soldier.

PKK sources didn’t make any statement regarding today’s clash.

If confirmed it will be the first fatal clash for Turkish army after PKK’s ceasefire declaration.

PKK declared an unilateral ceasefire on August 12.
