Turkish police raided the headquarters of the Kurdistan Freedom Party (PAK), the Kurdistan Socialist Party (PSK) and the Azadi Movement in Amed (Diyarbakir).

The police carried out the raid citing no official reason.

PAK Chair Mustafa Özçelik said that the raids may have taken place due to an event the PAK held in Dağkapı Square on December 17 to celebrate the "Kurdistan Flag Day".

Hidayet Fidan, a party assembly member of the PSK, stated that the police search continued in the party’s office and many flags were seized.
