An Ankara court Tuesday issued arrest warrants for 48 Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD) members, including several senior figures, over a terrorist attack in Ankara this February.
Salih Muslim, the head of the PYD, is on the terrorist list of planning and carrying out the February bomb attack, state-run Anadolu Agency reported.
The arrest warrant covers the PKK's senior members, Zubeyir Aydar and Remzi Kartal, both responsible for the terror group's operations in European countries.
Turkish government regards the PYD as the Syrian affiliate of the terror group of the PKK.
A total of 29 people were killed and more than 60 were wounded in the attack on Feb. 17 when a bomb-laden car was detonated during the passing of a military vehicle.
