BEHDÎNAN – The news agency has released guerrilla footage showing three occupying Turkish soldiers laying a hose to pump chemical gas into the guerrilla tunnels in Werxelê.
The Turkish occupying army, which has been attacking the guerrillas of the freedom of Kurdistan since April 14th, mainly in Zap, Metina and Avaşîn, as part of an annihilation operation, is using all kinds of chemical weapons. The occupiers, who were unable to enter the war tunnels due to the resistance of the HPG and YJA-Star guerrillas, only use chemical weapons and chemical gas rockets and bombs.
The fascist AKP-MHP regime, ignoring the rules of international war and gaining international support in crimes against humanity to crush the guerrillas of Kurdistan freedom, is taking advantage of the public’s willed silence regarding the war crimes they are supporting implemented by NATO. Once again, Turkish occupying forces were observed by guerrillas in the region pumping gas into guerrilla tunnels. In the new footage, captured under difficult conditions, soldiers of the invading army can be seen preparing to use chemical weapons in the Werxelê War Tunnels.
While some occupying soldiers throw their bags near the doors and windows of the guerrilla resistance tunnels, another occupying soldier, holding a compressed air hose, walks to where the bags were dropped. The other occupying soldier behind him follows him with a large compressor he carries on his shoulder. Then the invading army soldiers who went behind a rock prepare the materials in and extend the hose down.
The Turkish occupying soldiers lay the hose to fill the guerrillas’ positions and tunnels with chemical weapons. These pictures that were taken are the most tangible document of the invading Turkish army’s preparations for a brutal massacre.
In contrast to previous years, the Turkish occupiers used more intensive and varied chemical weapons in this year’s war of annihilation aimed at the Zap region. These gases, which smell like bleach and chlorine after the explosion, are white or gray in color and consist of chemical components that give off the smell of detergent.
Following the tale of the guerrillas resisting in the tunnels, the invading army also uses another chemical weapon that sticks to the tunnel walls and reactivates when moved. The gases from this chemical that cling to hair and clothing leave a strong odor and leave the guerrillas who inhale the gas breathless.
