"Turkish artillery shelled the Sidikan district, near where the Iraqi, Iranian and Turkish borders meet, but inside Iraq," spokesman Ahmed Denis told AFP. He had no immediate word on casualties.

PKK rear-bases in border districts of northern Iraq have been the target of repeated attack by the Turkish and Iranian militaries in recent weeks.

The PKK is blacklisted as a terror group by the European Union and the United States.
