PKK Guerrillas raid Diyarbakir Special Forces HQ
14.December.1992

	Last night (13.December) at about 19:05, a large ARGK (Kurdistan
People's Army for National Liberation) unit attacked the headquarters of
the Special Forces (para-military police) in the town of Diyarbakir. They
raided the headquarters with heavy machine guns. The attack lasted for 46
minutes. Sources in the region put the number of police dead at 27.
	After the guerrilla unit had withdrawn, there were clashes in the
suburbs which lasted for two hours. In these clashes, the Kurd-Ha news
agency put the number of dead Turkish soldiers at 10. They also reported that
police and army units made hundreds of random arrests.
	At about the same time, another ARGK unit ambushed a military convoy
on the road from Hani to Diyarbakir, killing 11 soldiers. This battle lasted
for 45 minutes.
