Martyr Soro Amed Revenge Unit claims action against MIT

Martyr Soro Amed Revenge Unit said it targeted two members of Turkish intelligence service MIT in Istanbul.

Martyr Soro Amed Revenge Unit said in a written statement: "On 13 January in the borough of Bahçelievler in Istanbul, members of the Martyr Soro Amed Revenge Unit carried out an action targeting MIT employees."

The statement added: "As a result of the action 2 MIT elements who were in a car were seriously injured and material damage occurred to the vehicle."

The statement continued: "The AKP-MHP-linked media continue to tell lies to people and reported that the detonation was caused by the explosion of the LPG tube. This is yet another attempt to cover up the truth. All MIT elements in Turkey and Kurdistan should be aware that we will continue our actions against all collaborative working."
