National Intelligence Organization (MIT) eliminates Barzan Hesenzade, codenamed ‘Tolhildan Kandil,’ PKK’s Iran youth coordinator in Iraq

National Intelligence Organization (MIT) eliminated the PKK terror group’s Iran youth coordinator in an operation in neighboring northern Iraq, according to information from security sources Thursday.

MIT identified the location of Barzan Hesenzade, codenamed “Tolhildan Kandil,” who joined the terrorist organization in 2016, in a rural area of the Qandil region.

Hesenzade was also found to be in contact with PKK ringleaders Cemil Bayik and Duran Kalkan, as well as to have been involved in recruitment efforts for the terrorist group.

In its over 35-year terror campaign against Türkiye, the PKK, which is listed as a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the U.S., U.K. and EU, has been responsible for the deaths of over 40,000 people, including women, children and infants.
