# 20 Soldiers Wounded In Pkk Bomb Attack In Turkey’S East
\- A total of 20 soldiers were wounded on Sept. 28 in a bomb attack by outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) militants in the eastern province of Bitlis.
PKK militants remotely detonated a bomb placed in the backyard of an officer’s club in the Tatvan district at around 7:45 a.m. as a military vehicle was passing. According to initial reports, 20 soldiers were wounded, although their condition is not said to be life-threatening.
Security forces have launched an operation in the region to apprehend the PKK militants responsible for the attack.
