Party of Free Life of Kurdistan (PJAK) is a militant Kurdish nationalist group with bases in the mountainous regions of northern Iraq that has perpetrated numerous attacks in western Iran, southern Turkey and the northeastern parts of Syria where the Kurdish populations live.

Iranian military troops have killed a number of terrorists from the so-called Party for Free Life of Kurdistan (PJAK) group seeking to cross the western borders into the country, a senior Iranian commander says.

A group of PJAK [Partiya Jiyana Azad a Kurdistanê, Party for a Free Life in Kurdistan] members in the Danish city of Arhus have started a three-day hunger strike to protest against the ongoing attacks of ISIS on Kobanê. The hunger strike which is being carried out in front of the Arhus Municipality building will end on Sunday.
