The Turkish army has carried out an artillery attack on Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) positions in northern Iraq, Turkish media said on Friday.
A Kurdish website said the shelling of the Zap region took place on Thursday evening, the first such incident for many months.
The Turkish military has not so far commented on the reports. There is no information on casualties.
The PKK is considered a terrorist group by Turkey and several other countries, including the United States.
The Kurdish area of southeastern Turkey has seen 25 years of fighting between separatist guerillas and government troops in which an estimated 40,000 people have died.
