Three Turkish soldiers were killed early on Friday in a firefight with Kurdish rebels in the southeast of the country, local security sources said.
  
The clash with members of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) occurred after the rebels attacked a military patrol in a rural zone of Tunceli, the sources said.
  
In a separate attack blamed on Kurdish rebels, two policemen were wounded when gunmen sprayed their car with machine gun fire in Sirnak near the border with Iraq and Syria, they said.
