This comes as Turkish state media is reporting an explosion at a police station in Turkey near the border with Syria has killed at least 11 people and wounded 70. There has been no claim of responsibility, but the Turkish prime minister has blamed the attack on the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, known as the PKK. Fighting has escalated between Turkish forces and the PKK since a ceasefire collapsed over a year ago. Earlier this year, the United Nations accused Turkish forces of carrying out human rights violations against civilians in the majority Kurdish southeast. In one instance, the U.N. says as many as 100 people burned to death while attempting to take shelter during a Turkish military offensive in the city of Cizre. The U.N. also says there have been reports of Turkish snipers intentionally shooting at civilians, including children.
