Protesters raid pro-Kurdish HDP office after deadly bombing in Kayseri
‘Dozens of angry Turkish protesters have stormed the headquarters of the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) in the aftermath of a car bomb attack in the country’s central province of Kayseri, which left more than a dozen soldiers dead and many more injured.
On Saturday, the protesters broke into the building in the provincial capital city of Kayseri, battering doors down, scattering papers, throwing furniture into the street and removing the HDP sign from the entrance.
Some of the demonstrators then climbed to the top of the building, set off a fire and furled down a flag of the far-right Nationalist Movement Party (MHP).
The development came after senior Turkish officials blamed the Saturday car bomb, which killed 13 soldiers and wounded 56 others, on Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) militants.’
