Kurdish Web Site Displays Photos of Captured Turkish Soldiers 


Tuesday , October 23, 2007

 

ANKARA, Turkey - 

A Kurdish Web site on Tuesday displayed photographs of what it said were
eight missing soldiers captured by separatist Kurdish rebels. 

The Turkish military said Monday that eight of its soldiers have been
missing since a rebel ambush near the Iraqi border on Sunday. The attack
killed 12 soldiers.

Rebels of the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, said they captured the
soldiers on Sunday and released their names and hometowns. Turkish officials
have, however, said the search for the soldiers continued and have not
confirmed the rebels' claims.

See the photos on the pro-Kurdish Web site.

One photograph displayed on the "Kurd Show" Web site showed eight men in
camouflage pants and khaki tops posing in front of a PKK flag, hung up on
what appeared to be a rocky mountainside. One other showed them drinking tea
out of glass mugs.

The Web site said the soldiers were in good health. It said the photographs
were proof that the soldiers were in the hands of the rebels.

If confirmed, the seizure would be the largest since 1995, when guerrillas
grabbed eight soldiers and took them to northern Iraq before releasing them
two years later.
