Unidentified person or persons vandalized the Green Left (Yeşil Sol) Party's election campaign offices in Ankara, the capital, and İzmir, Mezopotamya Agency (MA) reported.

In Ankara, the party's flags in an office in the Hüseyingazi neighborhood of the Mamak district were removed and Turkish flags were hung in front of the office.

In İzmir, two people, reportedly minors, vandalized an office in the Menemen district and shared the attack on social media.

The party officials refrained from filing a complaint against them due to their age.

Last week, a party office in İstanbul was targeted in a similar attack.

The Green Left is the largest party in the Labor and Freedom Alliance, one of the three major election alliances ahead of the May 14 polls.

Last month, the Kurdish issue-focused Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) announced its decision to compete in the elections under the Green Left due to an ongoing closure case. (NT/VK)
