Clashes in southeast Turkey kill seven, new curfews declared

By Seyhmus Cakan DIYARBAKIR, Turkey (Reuters) - Seven people were killed in clashes with security forces in Turkey's mainly Kurdish southeast, officials said on Monday, as authorities declared curfews across the restive region. The clashes are the latest in months of violence following the collapse of a ceasefire between the government and the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in July. Since then, Ankara has imposed round-the-clock curfews in many areas.
