One of two suicide bombers who killed at least 37 people in Ankara was a female PKK member, Turkish security officials said.
The blast ripped through Kizilay, a major shopping and transport hub, in the centre of the Turkish capital on Sunday night, also injuring more than 100 people.
Earlier, Turkey's president pledged that "terrorism will be brought to its knees" in the aftermath of a car bomb attack in the Turkish capital which killed at least 37 people.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan said: "Our people should not worry, the struggle against terrorism will for certain end in success."
Fighter jets struck arms depots and shelters of the PKK in the Iraqi mountainous areas of Qandil and Gara on Monday, according to Turkey's army.
