Riots in South-Eastern Turkey after Military Operations
Thousands of people in south-eastern Turkey demonstrated against military operations that left 12 PKK members and 5 soldiers dead. Shops in the region remained closed, schools were boycotted. Demonstrators clashed with the police.
...
Students of the Atatürk High School in Cizre (Şırnak) boycotted the lessons and chanted the slogan "Martyrs don't die" during some of the lessons. It was reported that the nearby Cizre Military Branch opened gunfire towards the school. No students were injured but the windows of the school flew into flinders and the walls were considerably damaged by the bullet holes.
...
In Istanbul, about one thousand people gathered on the Galatasary Square in central Istanbul on Monday to protest the operations of the Turkish Armed Forces against the PKK. A short commotion occurred when the crowd tried to walk along Istiklal Avenue towards Takism.
The police stopped the demonstrators from walking to Taksim.
And this from yesterday:
There were also protests in Hakkari, where many store owners kept their stores shut in protest of the deaths of the 12 PKK members.
Protestors attacked police with stones during illegal demonstrations in Batman and Siirt. In response, the police stepped up security measures in these provinces.
Some background, or another opinion.
