PKK announces withdrawal from Turkey as part of disarmament
Gulf Today
|October 27, 2025
The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militant group said on Sunday it was withdrawing from Turkey as part of a disarmament process being coordinated with the government, pressing Ankara to move ahead with steps allowing it to enter politics.
-
The PKK, which has waged an insurgency against the Turkish state since 1984, decided in May to disarm and disband after a call to end its armed struggle from its jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan. The fighting has killed more than 40,000 people.
In July, the outlawed group, which is designated a terrorist organisation by Turkey, the US and European Union, burned some weapons in a symbolic act of good faith.
