Born in Farqin district of Amed in 1983 to a matriotic family, our comrade Dicle witnesses fascism practised by the Turkish state in Kurdistan at a young age. In metropolises where she spent her early years in Turkey; the Kurdish people were held under every kind of pressure and exploitation.
At this stage, comrade Dicle’s search and awareness of the love of the country begins. On this basis, she makes herself more competent within the youth and social field studies. With this accumulation, she took her first step to the mountains of Kurdistan in 2004 and actively took her place in the guerrilla ranks.
Comrade Dicle, who is highly committed to her people, martyrs and cultural values, has achieved important successes on the front lines of the war for years. She is an active guerrilla commander in many parts of Kurdistan from Media Defense Areas, from Botan to Dersim.
Comrade Dicle has carried out all of her duties and responsibilities with a deep revolutionary culture and successfully completed her tasks. Comrade Dicle, who was a member of Dersim State Commandership, actively fought against the enemy in her region and hit the enemy with heavy blows.
Comrade Dicle became an effective militant on the basis of the Leader Apo’s Ideology of Women’s Freedom, has been a sacrificial militant with a humble, enthusiastic and altruistic stance in life.
Our friends Berfin, Havin, Kinem and Nuda joined the ranks of Freedom at a young age and soon became competent militants. Each of our comrades who have worked hard against all the harsh conditions has been our exemplary comrades who have resisted sacrificially against the fascist attacks of the invading Turkish state.
In a short period of time, our comrades, who deepened themselves in the modern guerrilla line of the 21st century and fulfilled their most successful tasks on this basis, will always be called as the valiant militants of Dersim and will shed light on the path of the remaining comrades.
On this basis, while promising that we will triumphantly crown the flag of liberty carried by our comrades Dicle, Berfin, Havin, Kinem and Nuda, who have taken their place in the caravan of the Immortals of Kurdistan, we send our condolences to the matriotic families of our dear hero comrades.
