Behzat Carcel
Behzat Carcel is a commander of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), a group that has been involved in a long-standing conflict with the Turkish government. Recently, he was in the news for participating in a ceremony where PKK fighters began to destroy their weapons as part of a peace process aimed at resolving tensions between the Kurds and Turkey. This significant step marks a transition from armed struggle to a focus on political solutions, amid ongoing discussions for the release of the PKK's imprisoned founder, Abdullah Öcalan.
