Five more PKK terrorists have surrendered to security forces in Turkey, the Interior Ministry said on Thursday.
A TOTAL OF 215 TERRORISTS LAID DOWN ARMS
In a statement, the ministry said the terrorists turned themselves in as a result of persuasion efforts by police and gendarmerie forces.
They had joined the YPG/PKK between 2011 and 2015, and were active in Syria and Iraq, the press release added.
With the latest addition, the number of terrorists who laid down arms through persuasion in 2020 has risen to 215, according to the ministry.
