💨 Abstract

Fighters from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) began laying down their weapons in a symbolic ceremony, marking a potential end to a long-running conflict with Turkey. The PKK, founded in 1978, has sought Kurdish independence and rights, evolving from armed insurgency to peace talks. Key events include Ocalan's capture, ceasefires, and failed peace initiatives. The latest gesture aims to dissolve the PKK and end its armed struggle.
