ANKARA, 11 July 2018 [Fik/News Sources]: Turkish airstrikes have "destroyed" 28 PKK terror targets in northern Iraq, the General Staff said Wednesday. The military said fighter jets hit targets on Tuesday in northern Iraq’s Qandil, Metina, Zap, Avasin Basyan, Hakurk and Gara regions, destroying shelters and depots that were used by PKK.

Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab told the Sunday Telegraph that there must be “conditionality” between Britain making the exit payment and its ability to create a new relationship with the EU. He says “you can’t have one side fulfilling its side of the bargain and the other side not, or going slow, or failing to commit on its side.” Raab replaced David Davis, who resigned two weeks ago to protest Prime Minister Theresa May’s “soft” Brexit plan.
