39
Turkish police, according to official Ankara, are conducting an anti-terrorist operation in Diyarbakir. Diyarbakir is the unofficial capital of Turkish Kurdistan. The city has a curfew, and several quarters of Diyarbakır at once resemble a zone of the most real fighting. Turkish newspaper Hürriyet reports that barricades are lined up in the city, which prevent the advancement of police officers on armored vehicles. For clearing debris, you have to use special construction equipment.

Turkish security forces conduct special operation in the province of Diyarbakir (Turkish Kurdistan)


Judging by the photos, construction equipment is being shelled by Kurdish armed formations.

In addition, it is reported that representatives of the Kurdish population block the movement of the armored vehicles of the Turkish police, creating deep and relatively wide trenches on city streets, which are also used as communication routes between the houses.



Turkish media reported the presence of the dead and wounded. A police spokesman said that the representatives of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) opened fire first, and the law enforcement officers had to respond. In the message there is information according to which two police officers were injured, one local resident was killed. According to the latest data, representatives of the PKK use improvised explosive devices and firearms weapon.

For reference: in the province of Diyarbakir (Turkey) is a US military airbase, from the territory of which the US Air Force planes fly into the air to conduct air strikes on the territory of Syria and Iraq. According to some information, at least 300 US troops are at the airbase. In August of this year, PKK members attacked a military base in Diyarbakir, killing one soldier, and another five were injured. Then it was reported that all the victims - the citizens of Turkey.

        In Soviet times, they supported. So they are again guided by the mood and successes of Russia, which can raise the issue of creating a state at the UN. The Kurdish issue will be resolved, Russia will get an ally in the Middle East who will be very grateful to the countries that will support them. Syria and Iraq will "agree" by the world community, with a guarantee of strengthening their statehood, and thus Turkey will receive a "response" for its ideas of the Great Turan, the past support of the Caucasian bandit underground and anti-Russian policy. And in general there are many accounts for the Turks, and not only with us. The Serbs (historically) for the Turkish southern flank of NATO, the Greeks, the Bulgarians.
        If we have already begun to restore order in the Arab East, then we will also have to dictate the rules!
        Why are Kurds worse than Jews, who created the state with the permission of Stalin?
        They fight for him for a long time, including and now with the terrorist Caliphate, IG.
        Turks were and will be enemies, for everyone in the region and for us (how many dirty tricks in the whole history they did!). And the enemy of my enemy ...

        I don’t even know how the Kurds often fight for their freedom by purely terrorist means, again I, like your President, for the territorial integrity of the existing states. There is a great alternative to separation - wide autonomy and involvement of representatives of all nationalities and faiths in the process of solving common problems and joint management of a single (not to be confused with a unitary) state.

      The fact that Erdogan will flatten the Kurds is a highly anticipated event. I wrote about it already. Another thing is that with the victory in the elections and further centralization of power in his hands, he will most likely carry out ground operations in the Iraqi and Syrian enclaves of the Kurds, which the Turks have already announced.

But when the Kurds of all 4 countries find a common language in the war of liberation, Erdogan will not be greeted there and his territorial losses will be greater than those of all the others.

          Currently, “Kurdish languages” most often means four languages:
          1.kurmanji, or northern Kurdish (Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran, countries of the former Soviet Union, countries of Europe and the USA);
          2. Sorani, or Central Kurdish (eastern Iraq, Iran);
          3. South Kurdish language;
          4. varnishes
          Kurds understand each other, there are differences in phonetics.
          And the rest, I agree with your vision of the situation.

      Turkish intelligence and secret police are not particularly tormented by legal norms, they will always have an extra camera for the Kurds. But when the Kurds in Iraq build a semblance of a state that has oil in their bowels, then the Turks will not be able to avoid problems.

      And why did you, colleague, decide that the Turkish Kurds are fighting in Syria. The Kurds of Syria, Iraq and Turkey are far from a single community that does not have a single structure and leadership, which to some extent explains why the so-called Kurdistan has not yet been formed. By the way, the current armed confrontation in Diyarbakir began after a rather long truce concluded between the Turkish government and the PKK. But as for the running militants, you are at the very point, they will not add stability in Turkey.

    Many here wish good luck to Kurdistan, not realizing that this is an American project. They receive full support from them and love the Amers. These Americans created the de facto Iraqi Kurdistan. These Americans are throwing arms assistance to the Syrian Kurds. And this despite the fact that the USA And Turkey's allies. Many are driven to Turks and Turkey, recalling some wars under the king of peas. Only in Turkey, Russians and Russia are not very trendy. They do not even enter the Top 3 enemies. Everyone hates the USA, EU, ISRAEL and Kurds. seldom anyone remembers Russians. Right now, the topic began to procrastinate a bit, since Russia also bombed the Turks of Syria, count those Azerbaijanis by blood. And nobody remembered Russia at all.
