The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militant group, which has been locked in bloody conflict with Turkey for more than four decades, has decided to disband and end its armed struggle, group members and Turkish leaders said on Monday.

After more than a four-decade insurgency carried out by Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) against Turkey, the US-designated terror group, says it has abandoned its armed struggle against Ankara.

PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan is leading peace efforts to end a Kurdish armed rebellion against Turkiye after four decades.
