Curfew declared in southeastern Turkey

Turkish authorities has declared military curfew in 5 villages in the southeastern city of Siirt, the provincial governor's office said in a statement on Tuesday.

According to the statement, 5 villages in the Eruh district of Siirt will be ruled under curfew on the grounds of military operations against PKK members in the region.

Curfew will be in force until a second order to avoid civilian casualties and for the safety of life and property of the citizens, the statement said.

The end of the curfew will be announced later, the statement added.

The ongoing conflict between Turkey and PKK has resulted in nearly forty thousand deaths since 1984 when PKK waged an insurgency against Turkish State.
