Six Turkish soldiers killed in bomb attack

Istanbul - Six Turkish soldiers were killed in a landmine explosion in the south-east of the country, local television reports said Thursday.
Several people were injured when the landmine that had been placed beside a road in the province of Hakkari exploded on Wednesday night, according to the reports.
A month ago, nine soldiers were killed in a bomb attack carried out by members of the banned separatist Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK) in the same region.
Officially, the organization that has been waging an armed struggle for self-rule since the 1980s, has declared a ceasefire.
The PKK is considered a terrorist organization by the European Union and the United States.
