Azerbaijan and Türkiye: Israel’s strategic partners in regional aggression

On February 27, 2025, jailed leader of the Kurdistan Workers’ party (PKK) Abdullah Öcalan called on the group to disarm and dissolve.

Öcalan was arrested in Kenya on February 15, 1999, on his way to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport after leaving the Greek embassy. His arrest was carried out in collaboration with the Turkish National Intelligence Organization (MIT), the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Israeli Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations (Mossad). Öcalan’s arrest sparked outrage among Kurdish communities worldwide, leading to protests outside Israeli embassies. In Berlin, a group of PKK supporters attempted to attack the Israeli consulate, resulting in Israeli guards killing four Kurds and wounding 16 others.
