Kurdish attack in Ankara could derail prospects for peace talks, analysts say 

Relatives of Hasan Huseyin Canbaz, who was killed in an attack by PKK members at the Turkish aerospace and defense company TUSAS on Wednesday, mourn during a funeral at Karsiyaka mosque in Ankara, Oct. 24, 2024. Ambulances line up at the entrance of the headquarters of Turkish aerospace and defense company TUSAS near Ankara, where five people were killed in an attack, Oct. 23, 2024.

A Kurdish militant group on Friday claimed responsibility for an attack on a major state-run defense company in Turkey’s capital, an action that analysts say could complicate prospects for renewed peace talks between the Turkish government and the country’s Kurdish minority.
