Turkey's ruling alliance submitted a draft law to parliament meant to achieve peace with the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in part by protecting many former militants from prosecution and suspending prison sentences for some others.
It is backed by a majority of lawmakers and is expected to pass the assembly later this week.
Turkey's national security council would verify the group's disarmament and a committee would oversee the militants' surrender and disarmament under the bill.
The peace process between Turkey and the PKK began in late 2024, PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan called on the PKK to disarm and disband last year and the group agreed.
