The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) claimed responsibility for this week’s attack in the Turkish city of Van, saying it had killed 18 police and security forces and wounded 30 workers of the Turkish ruling party.
In a statement posted on the website of its armed wing, HPG, the PKK said that Monday’s attack was in response to “the killing of youths in Van” and the appointment of new trustees in place of ousted elected mayors “against the will of the people.”
