A number of labour unions and federations in Turkey have called for 3 days of mourning followed by two days of strike action following the bombing of a peace march in Ankara, the nation’s capital. The International Trade Union Confederation has put out a statement condemning the terrorist attack, which occurred on October 10 and has killed more than 90 people, with others injured. The peace rally was calling for an end to the renewed conflict between the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and the Turkish government. Thousands rallied on Sunday 12 October to remember those that died in the bombings.
