Turkish Parliament approved the extension of the prime ministry motion to conduct military operations against terrorist organization PKK in the north of Iraq for one more year, Anadolu reported.
The motion was approved by votes of deputies of the ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party, the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) and Nationalist Movement Party (MHP).
