power plants, guard stations, police vehicles, exploding mines, burning
down schools, extortion, and abducting workers, teachers, prosecutors,
and soldiers. 150 Furthermore, as of June 2014, these acts showed a signif-
icant increase.
In early October 2014, the PKK attempted to lay waste to the whole
of Turkey within 2 days. During this uprising, which was named ‘6-8
October Events’, 35 cities fell into anarchy. 4 40 people lost their lives. 2 se-
curity officers were martyred. 221 civilians and 139 security officers
were injured. 780 buildings, including 212 school buildings, 67 police
buildings, 25 district governorship buildings, 29 political party build-

ings, nursery schools, and the Red Crescent blood centers, and 1113
buildings in total were either burned down or damaged. In these acts of
violence, many private cars, municipality cars, ambulances, and police
vehicles were burned down and 1177 vehicles in total were destroyed.
The autopsy reports of the adolescent youths who were lynched to
death on the streets clearly showed the spirit of rage and hatred the PKK
militants harbored. 151 Tens of stab and bullet wounds were detected on
rd
the bodies of the youngsters. One was thrown down from the 3 floor of
a building, one’s body was set on fire, and another one’s throat was slit.
It is upsetting to see certain circles who try to raise sympathy for the
PKK turn a blind eye to such atrocious activities of the PKK.
The year 2015 displayed that the PKK exploited the so-called reso-
lution process to strengthen their terror campaign. Weapons, bombs, ex-
plosives, rocket-launchers, and anti-aircraft guns that were amassed in
the cities during that process were now directed at soldiers, police, and
civilians, and the PKK launched perhaps one of the biggest uprisings in
its history.

The perception operation that is carried out worldwide to cover up
and distort the truths about the PKK, to deceive and mislead the people
can be highly systematic, extensive and in great proportion. However,
the written and verbal statements given by the founder and leader of the
organization, Abdullah Ocalan, at various times alone are enough to
show the true and dark side of the PKK.
