A PKK/YPG terrorist surrendered to Turkish security forces in southeastern Sirnak province on Sunday, according to a security source.
The terrorist used to work for PKK's Syrian branch YPG, the source, who asked not to be named due to restrictions on speaking to media, said.
He was identified as A.B. codenamed Azad, 19, who had joined the terrorist group in February.
Separately, Aram Civan codenamed Osman Gulen -- who was neutralized on July 23 in southeastern Diyarbakir -- was found to be mentioned in the grey category of the Turkish Interior Ministry’s wanted list on Sunday.
Turkish authorities often use the word "neutralized" in their statements to imply the terrorists in question either surrendered or were killed or captured.
In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU -- has been responsible for the death of some 40,000 people.
Two PKK terrorists in Turkey's southeastern Şırnak province , who opened fire on a gendarmerie station, were located via an unmanned air vehicle and neutralized via air support sent to the area. They were later neutralized Saturday, according to a security official.
