SULAIMANI – A PKK Executive Council member has said that he believes the attack on an Istanbul nightclub that killed 39 revelers on Sunday (January 1), was not the work of any armed Kurdish group.
Netherlands 🇳🇱 MFA @DutchMFA 6h#Koenders: Heinous attack on innocents #Reina. Condolences to TR on behalf of Dutch government. Sympathy with victims and families.
Turkish authorities believe the attacker who killed 39 people at an Istanbul nightclub over the New Year is linked to Islamic State jihadists and may be from Central Asia, the Hurriyet daily said.
"In continuation of the blessed operations that Islamic State is conducting against the protector of the cross, Turkey, a heroic soldier of the caliphate struck one of the most famous nightclubs where the Christians celebrate their apostate holiday," the statement said.
A total of 147 Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) suspects have been detained in operations across Turkey over the past week, the Interior Ministry stated on Dec. 2, one day after a gunman of the jihadist group staged an attack targeting New Year’s revelers at a popular nightclub in Istanbul.

2016 was another year of conflicting narratives regarding the Islamic State (IS). On one end, the Obama administration continued to mischaracterize the threat, painting a picture of IS in retreat amid ongoing attacks from coalition and Iraqi forces. On the other end, there was reality, which spoke loudly to anyone willing to listen.
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaISIS officially claims responsibility for #Istanbul nightclub attack. Statement refers to Turkey as "protector of the cross".
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaISIS at war with Turkey. Istanbul attack "continuation of blessed operations carried out by Islamic State against protector of the Cross."
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaISIS says Istanbul attack is "response to the order of Emir of Believers". Lately al-Baghdadi singled out Turkey &urged attacks against it.
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaThis is 2nd time that ISIS openly claims an attack in Turkey. First claim was a car bomb blast in Diyarbakir city back in November.
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaOn telegram, ISIS supporters are pushing images &videos of death &destruction by Turkish planes in al-Bab, Syria to justify Istanbul attack.
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaISIS had the time to build a huge network in #Turkey & now its openly declaring war on the country.
Jenan Moussa@jenanmoussaWorst thing about Arabic tweets on Istanbul attack is that main concern of some isn't the dead people but alcohol served in the club. Shame.
Jenan Moussa @jenanmoussaAmaq on Istanbul attack. Check last line: "Islamic State called its fighters &supporters to attack Turkey, who entered in conflict with IS."
