	NEWS CENTER - HPG announced that the bomb attack against the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Ankara was carried out by the Immortals Battalion.

	HPG made a written statement regarding the bomb attack carried out this morning against the General Directorate of Security of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In the statement published by Fırat News Agency (ANF), it was stated that the Ministry of Internal Affairs was targeted and said: "Today, at around 09.30, a sacrificial action was carried out by a team affiliated with our Immortals Battalion against the premises of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Turkey. It was specifically envisaged that this action would be carried out on the opening day of the Parliament, very close to the Parliament, against a massacre and torture centre, and it took place exactly as planned, without any obstacles. This self-sacrificing action, which was completely successful as our activist comrades liquidated the security guard and entered the prison, has achieved its purpose."

	'THE LOSSES ARE HIDING'

	In the statement, it was noted that the losses suffered in the Ministry of Internal Affairs were hidden, and added: "However, as always, the AKP-MHP fascist regime, with great disrespect towards the people and the public, chose to blatantly deny the losses suffered in this action. Everyone should know that, if the members of the Immortal Battalion wanted, they could have made a small change in the time of action, which could have led to very different results; however, such a choice was not made consciously, and the main purpose was delivering the necessary message to the relevant areas and seriously warning them has been adhered to."

	The statement continued as follows: "The action that took place was based on the inhumane practices and isolation policies developed in all dungeons in Turkey and Kurdistan, which violated human rights by disregarding national and international laws, the use of chemical weapons prohibited by the universal laws of war against our guerrilla forces, and the use of chemical weapons against our guerrilla forces in Kurdistan. It is an act of self-defense aimed at warning against the plunder and massacre that took place against its nature and the fascist pressures on the people of Kurdistan and all democratic circles. If the genocidal fascist AKP-MHP regime continues to commit these crimes, the legitimate actions of revolutionary justice will continue."

	HPG stated that the identity information of those who carried out the action will be disclosed later.
