Turkish soldiers stand next to the coffins of Zahide Guglu Ekici, Hasan Huseyin Canbaz and Cengiz Coskun during their funeral at Karsiyaka mosque in Ankara, Thursday, Oct. 24, 2024, a day after they were killed during an attack by PKK members at the Turkish aerospace and defense company TUSAS on Wednesday.
The assailants were also killed in a subsequent battle with security teams and more than 20 people were injured in the attack. Ocalan, who is serving a life sentence on a prison island off Istanbul, said in a message conveyed by his nephew on Thursday that he was ready to work for peace. On Friday, an Iraqi security official said Turkish warplanes intensified their airstrikes on sites belonging to the PKK and other loyal forces in northern Iraq’s Sinjar district. The intensive bombing targeted tunnels, headquarters and military points of the Workers’ Party and the Sinjar Protection Units inside the Sinjar Mountain area.
