Turkey election: 'Fight' for Kurdish identity

It is the final week of campaigning before Turkey's general election on June 7th.

The votes of Turkey's 15 million Kurds could decide whether the governing AK Party consolidates its grip on power or whether it is deprived of its majority by the pro-Kurdish HDP party crossing the parliamentary threshold.

The BBC's Mark Lowen is in the Kurdish-majority city Diyarbakir as part of his election road trip, where the Kurds are mourning the loss of their fighters in Syria and Iraq.
