Kurdish-Turkish conflict
[ edit ]
Conflict between the PKK and the Turkish state forces
[ edit ]
A bomb exploded in Şemdinli town centre on November 1, 2005. It was officially attributed to the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), an armed Kurdish militant group. On November 9 one man was killed in a grenade attack on a local bookshop. The suspects of this attack, however, were caught in the act by bystanders. They were said to be members of a Turkish Gendarmerie unit, JITEM . The resulting investigation developed into a major political issue in Turkey in the first half of 2006.[7]
Investigations concerning the Şemdinli bombing trial were blocked by the military, and all the judges and prosecutor associated with the Şemdinli bookshop bombing case transferred from Van to other cities following a June 2007 decree.[8]
Clashes in 2012
[ edit ]
On 23 July 2012, Turkish security forces began a major security offensive, backed by airpower, against the PKK around Şemdinli. Interior minister, İdris Naim Şahin , explained that the forces were attempting to block the PKK's escape routes into northern Iraq , and that as many as 115 PKK fighters had been killed. Television news channel, Nergis Televizyonu (NTV), claimed that up to two thousand troops were involved in the operation. On 5 August 2012, PKK forces fired on a Turkish military post in the village of Gecimli, triggering clashes that killed 22 fighters, soldiers and village guards , and injuring 15 others, including five civilians. The military post was one of a number attacked in Hakkâri Province , although there were no reports of casualties in the other incidents.[9]
