The YPS-JIN Coordination made a written statement on the occasion of its 5th year. In their statement, the woman’s civil defence unit operating in Turkey-occupied Northern Kurdistan shared:
“The international conspiracy continues with a new concept, aiming the total liquidation and destruction of the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle and the Women’s Freedom Struggle in the person of Leader Apo. The fire that emerged in Imralı Island and the subsequent message of the AKP-MHP fascism to the Kurdish people, the leader, to the women who are locked in the health, safety and conditions of Leader Apo is clear.
It is not possible to deal with this message, which is sent to all the people of Kurdistan – from freedom fighters, to women insurgents, to young women, and even Kurdish mothers. To all people from 7 to 70 people. Fascism is preparing its own end by playing with fire on Imrali island.
Our truth of women’s freedom, being locked around the Sun in the land of fire; It has the power to turn the brain of fascism and their dynamics of existence into hell. Our tradition of resistance, our legacy of freedom of women has proved many times what this might can do, be it on the streets of Sur, the neighbourhoods of Cizre, Nusaybin, and Gever. With the public, shoulder to shoulder, we hit the most unpredictable blow to the enemy, wherever and whenever it declared victory.
This heritage pulls its strength from the courage of Sakine Casız, the sacrifice of Zilan, and the honorable stance of Beritan against collaboration and betrayal. From the revenge-dressed body of Ekin Wan, from Sêvê’s stance of ‘life is resistance, resistance is life.’With Roza’s fight of hope until the last moment, the belief of Zeryan, the unyielding stance of Asya, from Axin’s warriorism.
The heritage left by martyrs we cannot begin to list, survives.
Since March 8, 1857, the relentless way of resistance, the big passengers, we are closer to the slogan “Jin, Jiyan, Azadi” now more than ever. The duty of carrying the freedom flag which they have left, to victory is the debt of our neck.
In this period when the flag of freedom is closer to victory than ever, as YPS-JIN, we celebrate the March 8 occasion of all women, all of those who resist with the fire of freedom, and we will raise the struggle with the awareness and belief that the 21st century will be the women’s freedom century.
We are locked in the line of victory in our 5th year with the assurance that we will prove our bouncing stance to the enemy under all circumstances around the enlightenment of architect and Leader Apo.
We commemorate the immortal passengers of this heritage with respect and gratitude, and we promise once again that we will crown their memories with victory. ”
