Description
Syrian Kurds hold up flags bearing portrait of Abdullah Ocalan, leader of the Kurdistan Worker's Party (PKK) jailed in Turkey since February 15, 1999, during a rally calling for his release in the Kurdish-majority city of Qamishli in northeastern Syria. Ocalan, founder of the party which has waged a decades-long insurgency against the Turkish state, is to make "a historic call" to his followers that many hope will pave the way for a solution to the Kurdish question.
