AUGUST 05: Families in Turkey whose children have been abducted or forcibly recruited by the PKK terrorist organization continued a sit-in protest on Thursday in the southeastern Diyarbakir province.
The families have been protesting for 703 straight days since Sept. 3, 2019, encouraging their children to give up their weapons and surrender to authorities.

Demonstrations have since spread to other provinces, including Van, Mus, Sirnak, and Hakkari.
Ayten Elhaman wants to reunite with her son who was abducted four years ago.
"We want our children back from HDP and the PKK. I will not leave here until I get my child back. Haber
