During the most intense periods of the war, he fought against the invading Turkish Republic in many parts of the Medya Defense Zones, and showed the enemy every time that an attempt to invade Kurdistan would not be free. With the military professional training he received, he improved himself in military art and successfully applied his training to practice and managed to become a consistent militant.

With his deep concentration on Democratic Modernity Guerrilla, he always wanted to go to the hottest areas of war and use his military experience to take revenge on the enemy. Comrade Mahir, who also assumed the task of team commander, both trained and led many of his comrades in every sense. He participated in many actions developed against the enemy by taking part in the mobile teams during the invasion attack of the enemy against Zap.

Our comrade Mahir, who was martyred during the retreat after the action, became one of the symbolic commanders of the historical Zap resistance.
