Turkey's southeast has witnessed a surge in violence since July when a fragile peace process between the state and Kurdish militants collapsed.The military has carried out sweeping operations in the southeast, including in Diyarbakir, to flush out fighters linked to the outlawed PKK.Turkey and its allies consider the PKK, which fought a decades-long insurgency against the Turkish state, a terrorist organisation.
