The attack which took place in Ankara continues to provoke new reactions. Two days after this attack which injured two police officers, Turkish authorities arrested nearly 70 people suspected of belonging to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which claimed responsibility for this attack.
The police carried out operations in sixteen provinces of the country, which led to the arrest of 67 suspects. These arrests demonstrate the determination of the Turkish authorities to fight against terrorist groups that threaten national security.
At the same time, the Turkish army launched airstrikes on 16 PKK positions in northern Iraq. This action aims to weaken the PKK’s rear bases, which use Iraqi territory to carry out their operations against Turkey.
The PKK is considered a terrorist organization by Turkey and the European Union. The fact that he claimed responsibility for this attack confirms his involvement in the acts of violence taking place in the region.
These recent events once again underline the importance of the fight against terrorism and the need to strengthen international cooperation in this area. Turkey, faced with a wave of attacks for several years, must continue to mobilize all its efforts to guarantee the security of its citizens.
In conclusion, the arrests of people suspected of being linked to the PKK and the airstrikes carried out by the Turkish army demonstrate the government’s determination to fight terrorism. These measures are essential to ensure the security of the country and its inhabitants. It is essential that the international community continues to support Turkey in this fight against terrorism.
