Iraqi clash with US planes

The Iraqi ground defenses clashed with US planes that attacked the Iraqi lands coming from Turkey. This attack is considered the second of its kind since NATO attacked Serbia last month.

Moreover Turkey announced that its forces have killed 14 Kurdish rebels, losing 10 Turkish soldiers in a military operation in northern Iraq last week.

The ruler of eastern province lying under the Turkish emergency law, Edin Arslan, announced the end of the operation in which 3,000 soldiers took part, supported by helicopters.

Meanwhile, Arsalan did not mention the date on which the forces crossing the borders a week before returned.
