Ten suspected elements from the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) were arrested in Turkey’s capital Ankara on Sunday, Anadolu News Agency (AA) reported.
The suspects were preparing to carry out attacks on public institutions and civilian targets on Monday, the 32nd anniversary of the group’s first armed attacks in Turkey, a security source said.
The operation by counter-terrorism police targeted members of the PKK youth wing, the source added. Leading figures are said to be among those arrested.
A reconditioned blank-firing gun, ammunition and organizational documents were recovered in the raid.
