Description
"I went out to the streets in the morning, I saw the happiness on people's faces," says Abdulhakim Doganer, a resident of Diyarbakir, Turkey's biggest Kurdish city, following the news that the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) militant group had announced is dissolution, drawing a line under its deadly four-decade insurgency. "We, the Kurdish people, never really supported the war," Doganer adds, referring to a string of attacks against the Turkish state that resulted in more than 40,000 deaths. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
