#1 Who or what is Ojalan, that she wants to avenge?

What background are these women terrorists coming from? Who's in the 'Urfa' region? Kurds?

Where could the A-4 explosive be coming from? What is A-4?

#2 Who or what is Ojalan, that she wants to avenge?

I believe this may be just the turkish spelling of Abdullah Öcalan. Urfa is a city, with apparently a solid kurdish population; so, I'd say she's probably kurd.
