Turkish Ruling Party Official Killed in Attack
[AnNahar] ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... 's state-run news agency ...and if you can't believe the state-run news agency who can you believe?... says a local official from the ruling party has been killed in an attack in a mainly Kurdish town in southeast Turkey. Anadolu Agency said Tuesday authorities believe the attack against Deryan Aktert, the ruling party's top official in the town of Dicle, was the work of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK. There was no immediate responsibility claim. It says assailants shot up a gas station owned by Aktert, abruptly ejecting him from the gene pool. It was unclear whether anyone else was hurt in the attack. Fighting between the PKK and the state security forces resumed last year after the collapse of a fragile 2 ½-year cease-fire. Since then, more than 600 Turkish security personnel and thousands of PKK snuffies have been killed, according to Anadolu. Posted by: trailing wife 2016-10-12 |
