Formally established in Turkey in 1978 by Abdullah Ocalan, the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK / KADEK) is a Kurdish political party whose main goal is the creation of an independent Kurdish state in southeast Turkey and in northern Iraq, a region that is part of the traditional territory of the Kurdish people. The PKK has conducted guerrilla ambushes and hit‐and‐run attacks on Turkish army convoys and outposts, typically using assault rifles, remote‐controlled improvised explosive devices, and rocket‐propelled grenades. Its activities include attacking the Turkish military, diplomats and Turkish businesses at home and in some western European cities. It has also been known to bomb resorts and kidnap tourists in an attempt to destabilize tourism in Turkey. In September 2022, PKK militants claimed that they had targeted a police station, in the Bagok mountain region of Turkey, with firearms and killed one police officer, and wounded at least one other. In October 2023, suicide bombers detonated an explosive device near an entrance of Turkey’s Interior Ministry, wounding two police officer. Turkish authorities identified one of the attackers as a member of the PKK.
