DEM Party Sultangazi District Organisation building was targeted by an armed attack.

The Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) building in Sultangazi district of Istanbul was targeted by an armed attack last night. The windows were broken by the bullets.

According to DEM Party Sultangazi District Co-Chair, Faruk Kaya, residents heard shots at around five o’clock in the morning. The police then inspected the building. The bullets fired by unknown persons broke through window panes. A total of around ten shots are said to have been fired.

The DEM Party, like its predecessor party HDP, is frequently the target of violent attacks. In May, 14 shots were fired at the DEM office Birecik district of Urfa. The most serious attack on a party building took place in June 2021 at the HDP headquarters in İzmir. Deniz Poyraz, a 38-year-old Kurdish woman, was murdered with six bullets in the building by a self-confessed fascist and follower of the far-right Grey Wolves organisation.
