Target | Peoples' Democratic Party |
On December 17, 2016, at around 21:30 (UTC+3) four masked people attacked the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) office in the Beylikdüzü district of Istanbul, located at a shopping mall. The attackers managed to overcome the security personnel and started a fire, which caused the explosions of the two gas tubes inside the building. One police officer and a security guard sustained minor injuries. In the same night, shots were fired by unidentified assailants at the HDP headquarters in Darıca, Kocaeli Province.[1][2][3] Attacks towards other HDP offices across the country have also been reported in İzmir, Çanakkale, Hatay, Ankara, and Erzincan.[4]
