The way I see it is the government is trying to distract us from Syria. These are probably killed earlier or old news.

I saw a video from today released by pkk. Several systems hit by fpv drones. One look like Kangal-D jammer, a Cobra 2 with Serhat Radar, 1 ACV-15. I wonder where the systems failed, and how we can improve them. These fpv drones are going to be real pain in the ass.

You need enough of them and then some more, as I see it ugavs need to head in first with 40mm grenade launcher incendiary and need to move in front before troops dive in. I think KKK is not modern enough.

The PKK has been carrying out drone attacks on the Turkish army for years. The reason why this is the first such effective attack is that we were caught unprepared, there is negligence.

MİT'ten Hakurk'ta nokta operasyon: Saldırı hazırlığındaki 2 terörist etkisiz hale getirildi​


The National Intelligence Organization neutralized Zeynep Aslan and Zeliha Mahcup, who were active in the armed women's organization of the PKK/KCK, in Iraq/Hakurk.​


MİT'ten Hakurk'ta nokta operasyon: Saldırı hazırlığındaki 2 terörist etkisiz hale getirildi



MİT's field agents detected terrorists Aslan and Mahcup, who were active within the armed women's organization of PKK/KCK, in Iraq/Hakurk countryside. It was determined that PKK/KCK members Aslan and Mahcup, who were learned to have received training for attacks against strategic targets in Turkey, were preparing to move to the country. MIT added two female terrorists to its target list. MİT, through its agents in the field, clarified the date and time when the terrorists in question will move to cross the country. Aslan and Mahcup started to be followed step by step. An operation decision was taken for two female terrorists who were wanted on suspicion of terrorism. With the appropriate conditions, MIT neutralized the terrorists with a pinpoint operation in Hakurk, Iraq.

ÖKK kills 3 PKK terrorists in this footage, at 0:03 you can even see one going down near the tree/mast.
They fought like lions, but we still don't get into direct contact much anymore, we usually leave the work to UAVs. In this way, we protect ourselves from possible ambushes.

If you noticed, our soldiers tried to enter the conflict zone several times, but the commander instructed the soldiers not to advance.

This is absolutely not true. There are actually nearly daily firefights, between TSK and the terrorists, UAV's play a big active role in targeting HVT's but not so much in the operations on the ground.

Rightly so from the commander, you don't rush into conflict when you don't know about what's happening around, could be a trap for and ambush, open terrain, you never know who is in the buildings behind. They did the best possible, getting out of the vehicle, firing down on the terrorists, gaining fire superiority, forcing them to run and leave the place asap. Probably calling CAS or UAV support afterwards to scan the area and hunt down the remnants.

Remember as the US Special Forces were ambushed in Niger, they didn't made it because they reacted slowly, if you watch the footage you will notice that they had a lot of opportunities and time to get into the vehicle and move, but they tried to engage, knowing nothing about the terrain, numbers of the militants and also the positions from were they are taking the shots. Result paid the ultimate price.

Its a team of 4 but all of them stand by the car in an unorganized way,what kind of Turkish team is that?
Look how they behave,one even made a pirouette.
They even stand side by side facing the terrorists rifles facing the sky,not strange to you?
True, actually one should have immediately cover the back, they shouldn't stand like that uncovered infront of the vehicle, communication was not good mainly failure of the commander but also the careless overreacting behaviour of the other soldiers.

Taking cover, protecting your back and clear communucations, none of them seen in the footage, at least they don't lack balls and skill with their rifle, he smoked that rat instantely from such a distance with couple rounds.

It doesnt matter that he smoked the terrorist,this was ridiculous.
How can a trained special forces team make such mistakes,unacceptable which leads to the conclusion:that fatass cant be special forces.
Looks like local Arabs.

Well training in a military base is something else then in an environment where the opponent side shoots back.

But nevertheless you are correct that Special Forces should remain calm and focused in such a scenario. Fatass? That's a plate carrier.

That's a plate carrier.
Take a better look,two of them have belly's,they stick out.
You can see that by the way they stand and move,these guys are never special forces.
I know what i'm talking about.
Lets just agree to disagree.

They wear the plate carrier over their jackets, i can see magazine pouches in the front and other bags on the side (maybe dump pouch or IFAK)...
