IRGC Denies Joint Operation With Turkey



TEHRAN (Press TV) -- Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) on Tuesday dismissed reports about plans for a joint operation with Turkey against the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) militants outside the Iranian borders.
"We have not devised any operation plan outside the borders of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the IRGC Ground Force's Hamzeh Seyed al-Shohada base said in a statement. "But like in the past, we will strongly counter any group, team or individual seeking to infiltrate into the Iranian territory to carry out terrorist or anti-security measures,” it added.
