BEHDINAN – In a statement made by the HPG Press Center, he stated that the guerrillas continue to inflict heavy blows on the units of the invading Turkish army:
“Equipped with the spirit of victory of our immortal commander, Comrade Egîd, and using the new era of professional guerrilla tactics, our forces continue to inflict heavy blows on the invaders. Our struggle, which started with the 15 August Breakthrough and has become the hope of all oppressed peoples today, is the result of the historical resistance developed by the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla along the line of self-sacrifice. Despite all the technical possibilities and dirty war methods it used, the colonial Turkish army, which could not break the resistance of our guerrilla and take great blows every day, wants to get results by intensely bombing the lands of Kurdistan. The invading Turkish state is trying to hide its defeat against the guerrilla will.
The Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla, living and fighting selflessly, will crown its unique resistance with victory to realize our people’s dreams of freedom.”
