PKK Says All Fighters Withdrawn from Türkiye, Presses Ankara on Öcalan

The dissolved PKK announced on Oct 8 that it had withdrawn all remaining fighters from Türkiye and vacated positions in Metina, Iraq, saying Ankara can no longer claim an armed threat. It criticised the new peace-process law for ignoring Abdullah Öcalan's framework and demanded action on his isolation on İmralı.
