At least two civilians were killed and 10 injured in a car bomb attack in northern Syria on Thursday, Turkey's Ministry of National Defense said.

"The baby killer PKK/YPG continues to carry out bloody terrorist attacks just like Daesh/ISIS.

"Two innocent civilians were killed and more than 10 civilians were injured in a bomb attack in Rasulayn by the brutal terrorist organization," the ministry said on Twitter.

In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK -- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and EU -- has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people, including women, children and infants. The YPG is the PKK's Syrian offshoot.

Turkey has been attacked by Daesh/ISIS terrorists numerous times since 2013, including in 10 suicide bombings, seven bombings, and four armed attacks which killed 315 people and injured hundreds.

In response to the attacks, Turkey launched anti-terror operations at home and abroad, neutralizing 3,500 Daesh terrorists and arresting 5,500.
