Ankara: Turkish warplanes on Monday struck Kurdish rebel bases in northern Iraq after a deadly bomb attack in the capital killed at least 36 people, the army said.

The fighter jets hit arms depots and shelters of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in the mountainous Kandil and Gara regions in northern Iraq, the army said.
