Cornered by Turkey's counter-terror operations, PKK terror group forcefully recruits children but mothers take a stand.

Axar.az reports citing AA that a mother on Tuesday launched a sit-in protest in front of the provincial office of the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) in Diyarbakir, accusing it of kidnapping her underage son into the PKK terror group.

Fevziye Cetinkaya said her 17-year-old son frequently went to the local HDP office and vowed never to stop her protest until he was returned.

Cetinkaya’s protest follows closely on the heels of Hacire Akar who launched a similar sit-in Aug. 22 near HDP’s office in Diyarbakir.

Akar’s protest ended up in success as her son, Mehmet, was brought just two days later. Her determination has become a source of inspiration for others.
