The government says more than 110 militants have been killed in gun battles. Three policeman are also reported to have been killed.

Many of the areas where demonstrations have taken place, close to the Iraqi and Syrian borders, have been under curfew for almost a week.

A ceasefire that lasted for two years between the government and the Kurdistan Workers Party or PKK fell apart in the summer.
