A Kurdish woman waves a paper flag of PKK (Kurdistan Workers Party) jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan during a peace demonstration at Kadikoy, in Istanbul, yesterday. Many BDP (Peace and Democracy Party) supporters gathered in the district located on the Anatolian side of Istanbul to mark the Sepember 1 peace day. Turkish police blocked the entrance to Istanbul’s Gezi Park to prevent a demonstration there against a possible military intervention in Syria.
