ISTANBUL, Turkey – The two co-chairpeople of Turkey’s pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) were among 12 members arrested in the early hours of Friday as part of a "terrorism probe" of the country's second-biggest opposition party.

Selahattin Demirtas said on Twitter early on Friday that police had arrived at his house in Diyarbakir to arrest him. Social media websites, including Twitter and Facebook, were blocked in Turkey soon after.
