Another PKK terrorist surrenders to Turkish security forces

Over 100 terrorists have laid down arms in 2022, says Interior Ministry

ANKARA (AA) – One more PKK terrorist has surrendered to the Turkish security forces, the Interior Ministry said on Sunday.

The terrorist joined the group in 2018 from Germany and operated in Syria, the ministry said in a statement.

The number of terrorists who have laid down their arms through persuasion efforts in 2022 now stands at 102, it added.

In Türkiye, offenders linked to terror groups who surrender are eligible for possible sentence reductions under a repentance law.

The PKK terror group, battered and demoralized by Turkish security forces' successful operations, has been in recent years losing members and failing to attract recruits, according to Turkish officials.

In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the US, and the EU – has been responsible for the deaths of more than 40,000 people, including women, children, and infants.
