The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) on Saturday declared a ceasefire with Türkiye after a landmark call by jailed PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan, urging the group to disband. 

"In order to pave the way for the implementation of leader Apo's call for peace and democratic society, we are declaring a ceasefire effective from today," the PKK executive committee said in a statement quoted by the pro-PKK ANF news agency, referring to Ocalan.
