Faraşin, Ferhat, Gülistan, Levent and Simko, who were born in different cities of Kurdistan, formed a deep patriotism and participated in the Struggle for Freedom on the basis of taking accountability from the occupying Republic of Turkey.
Our comrades Faraşin, Ferhat, Gülistan, Levent and Sımko have always been our exemplary comrades. They fought heroically in the positions against the occupation of the Turkish state in Xakurkê. Our comrades, who have been constantly fighting for the freedom of the leader Apo and the Kurdish people, have put their benevolent personalities to the fore for this cause and have hit the enemy with the indomitable resistance of the PKK.
It is the sole duty of the remaining comrades and patriotic Kurdish youth to protect the memories of these martyrs and to carry the values they create.
We extend our condolences to the patriotic Kurdistan people, especially the precious families of our comrades who have reached martyrdom, and promise to triumph the crown of our martyrs’ struggle for freedom. ”
