2 dead, 3 injured in clashes in southeastern Turkey

Two people died and three were injured on Saturday during clashes between pro and anti-PKK groups in Turkey's southeastern province of Sirnak.
According to Sirnak Governor's Office, the clashes, which started at 3.00 am in the Cizre town of the province, were later broken up by security forces.
Yasin Ozer and Abdullah Deniz died, while Nedim Kultur, Hakim Budak and Hekim Kasirga were injured.
"We just want all sides to refrain from any provocations. Because the outcome of these provocations will not be good for any side," says Kamuran Yuksek, co-head of the Democratic Regions Party, in a statement on Saturday.
Earlier in October, both clashes and protests erupted - resulting in some 40 deaths. They started when the Syrian border town of Kobani came under attack by ISIL militants and it was alleged that the Turkish government was not doing enough to help the town’s Kurdish-majority population.
ISIL militants launched an offensive in mid-September, capturing many villages surrounding the northern Syrian city of Kobani from Kurdish fighters.
