3 Turkish journalists said abducted by PKK
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThree journalists working for Turkish state-run news agency Anatolia are abducted Sunday by members of the militant Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in southeastern Turkey, the agency says.
Anatolia says that the incident occurred in Nusaybin in Mardin province, where the security forces have been conducting a vast operation aimed at flushing PKK rebels out of the area.
The agency is Turkey’s largest and has a large network of journalists in Turkey and abroad.
The border town of Nusaybin has been a hotspot in the fighting that flared up again between Turkish forces and the PKK after a fragile two-and-a-half year truce fell apart in July.
