Kurdish fighters killed herself with her last bullet to avoid being taken hostage by ISIS

Rather than fall into the Islamists' hands, Miss Ozalp is said to have used her final bullet to take her own life - calling her colleagues over the radio to say goodbye before killing herself, it was claimed. News of her suicide - which was initially said to have been confirmed by pro-Kurdish politicians in Turkey's BDP party - have since been called into question however, with several Turkey-based journalists quoting senior Kurds as saying Ms Ozalp is still alive and continues to fight against ISIS.
