The PKK is putting more bombing and assassination plans into action
Analysts say the PKK is putting more bombing and assassination plans into action in order to prevent its dissolution of and to strengthen its grassroots support for the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party (DTP) ahead of the March local elections.
Turkey's National Intelligence Organization discovered that the PKK sent a specially trained assassination team to Ankara to carry out the attack against the general, whose name was not disclosed. The team, which infiltrated Turkey from northern Iraq, reportedly possessed high-technology and armor-piercing weapons.
The assassination team was composed of a woman and man and that they were pretending to be husband and wife or lovers in order not to attract attention.
