BEHDINAN – HPG Press Center stated the following regarding the martyred guerrillas:
“In today’s world, where one of the most formidable resistances in the history of Kurdistan is taking place against the invading attacks, the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla is fighting a great battle of will to protect the honor and dreams of freedom of our people, even at the cost of paying a great price. In this war of will, the invading Turkish state cannot avoid being defeated by the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla despite all its technical equipment. The invading army, which wants to achieve false success by spreading the war to all Medya Defense Zones, is taking heavy blows from our forces at all hours of the day. Undoubtedly, the struggle that our comrades have developed with great self-sacrifice and faith comes at a heavy price. Our comrades Güven and Vorîn successfully fulfilled their pioneering duties in the development and expansion of our resistance with their self-sacrificing stance in the face of enemy attacks.
The identity information of our comrades who reached martyrdom is as follows:

GÜVEN DOZA
Our comrade Güven was born as a member of a family originally from Agirî in the Turkish metropolis of Kocaeli. Our country did not live in Kurdistan because of his family immigrating to Kocaeli. At the same time, she had to lead a life away from Kurdish consciousness and culture because her family was affected by the intense assimilation policies of the enemy. Our comrade Güven will later make this situation one of the main reasons for struggle and will make the ground for her to make big breakthroughs in her personality. Although she did not know the reality of the people and the freedom struggle in Kurdistan, she was not insensitive to the events surrounding her, and she wondered and wanted to understand the reasons for the war that has been going on in our country for years. Especially when she went to university, her curiosity increased and her search for understanding the freedom war that developed under the leadership of our party PKK deepened even more. Through a group of youth struggle workers he met in Edirne in 2015, she began to understand the reality of the people of Kurdistan, the reality of the enemy who wants to massacre our people. Again, she did not remain indifferent to the recognition of the reality of struggle by the Kurdistan guerrillas, who struggled against these genocidal policies of the enemy, and wanted to melt into the truth of freedom he recognized by creating a great leap in her personality.
Our comrade Güven joined the guerrilla ranks in 2016 with great faith, despite getting to know her recently and not being able to find answers to many questions. She was in the war due to the enemy attack that developed in the days when she was just training a warrior in the Zap area, where the war was intense, but she faced the enemy attacks with an unshakable will and indescribable courage and took part in actions where heavy blows were inflicted on the enemy. This has turned into an advantage for our comrade Güven, whose participation in the war, like her participation in the guerrilla, was developing rapidly. She learned about our party, guerrillaism, mountain life, and comradely relations in practice, and for this reason, her bond with our party has been very solid and deep. Although it was difficult for her comrades to be martyred next to her, our comrade Güven was aware that she needed to increase her struggle more in order to be a correct answer to the reality of martyrdom. She was aware that this is due to getting to know Leader Apo more. Based on this reality, she continued her quests to better understand the Leadership philosophy and to make it the basis of her life.
Comrade Güven, who understood that she could learn the most accurate answers to the questions she could not answer, within the Hêzên Taybet organization, where Apoist sacrifice is practiced in the most refined way, joined the Hêzên Taybet activities in 2017 with her own suggestion. She has worked in many fields in Hêzên Taybet and has a stance that gives confidence to all her comrades with her successful work. However, our comrade Güven, whose heart always beats with her comrades at the front, suggested to go to the areas where the war was intense. Comrade Güven, who was full of anger like all her fellow self-deployed comrades in our struggle for freedom against the enemy, has determined this anger as the main motivation factor to train him in military and ideological terms. In this sense, she completed her military and ideological training with great success. Our comrade Güven, a competent guerrilla, saw herself as an Apoist self-deprecating militant responsible for the difficult process our people went through and the heavy isolation against our Leader and wanted to be the answer. Our comrade Güven, who is taken as an example by all her comrades with her sincerity and honesty, has participated in all her works with this concentration and has been successful in every work she has undertaken with a result-taking style. Being aware of the fact that sacrifice means melting oneself in the Apoist philosophy, our comrade Güven did not allow anything to come between her and our Leader, and she made an effort to live every moment with the Leader.
Our comrade Güven, who develops her personality day by day, has become an exemplary YJA Star guerrilla, especially with her stance on the line of women’s freedom. As a female guerrilla, she was aware of her responsibilities in order to realize the dreams of freedom of women and our people and to achieve the position that women deserve in society, and she struggled with great sacrifice to fulfill these responsibilities. On this basis, our comrade Güven assumed the command of her comrades, who required a great responsibility, and served as the unit commander. She has played an important role in the successful progress of the works she has undertaken with her collective working style. In this sense, she had an important contribution in the achievement of the missions of the period and the resistance developed against the enemy. Again, she was personally interested in the education of her comrades and shared her experiences in life and on the battlefield. She worked day and night for each of her comrades to deepen in self-sacrifice, and while educating her comrades, she also trained herself. For this reason, she succeeded to be one of the leading commanders of the guerrilla restructuring project and became one of the unique examples of the new command personality.
Our comrade Güven has made a great effort to carry out the mobile team and tunnel wars in the most delicate way in the field against the new attack wave that the enemy has developed since April. Our comrade Güven, who struggled to respond to the enemy attacks in the areas where he was one-on-one during the preparatory work and where the resistance is at its peak today, reached martyrdom in the enemy attack and joined the caravan of martyrs. As the successors of our comrade Güven, who managed to keep the Apoist self-sacrifice alive in the simplest way, we promise that we will crown the freedom war he started with victory and that we will make her dreams come true.

VORİN QESASÊ WELAT
Our comrade Vorîn was born in a patriotic family in the Hazro district of Amed. Due to the patriotism of his family, he started to recognize our freedom movement at a young age. Again, it has witnessed the developing enemy oppression and persecution against our people. For this reason, due to the torture and exploitation policies that are common to our people, they have begun to experience contradictions. These contradictions have deepened day by day and made it a reason for struggle. Especially when his brother joined the guerrilla ranks and was later captured by the enemy, he decided to join the ranks of the struggle.
Our comrade Vorîn, who joined the guerrilla ranks from Amed in 2017, when the enemy was under heavy attacks, moved to the Medya Defense Zones after a short time and took part in the Komalên Ciwan activities for a while. Our comrade Vorîn, who adapted to the mountain and guerrilla life in a short time due to his love for the PKK life and the guerrilla, has been constantly trying to improve himself. Our comrade Vorîn, who has been carrying out his studies successfully, started to work on HPG, thinking that he should participate more in the current process. He felt deep anger at the enemy’s attacks against our people and the guerrilla and made this anger the main reason for his struggle. After successfully completing the training of new warriors, he had a great effort in the preparation of war tunnels, which is one of the war tactics of the new era. With his hardworking and self-sacrificing personality, he was successful in all his work, and with this feature, he became an exemplary militant and gained the trust of his comrades. Our comrade Vorîn, who set an example for all his comrades with his unaccountable and honest participation, felt conscientiously disturbed by the isolation imposed upon our Leader, and thought that more struggle and more action should be taken in order to break this isolation and physically liberate our Leader. Our comrade Vorîn, who has a focus on this basis, saw the work of Hêzên Taybet as the field where he could best practice these thoughts, and he participated in these studies voluntarily.

Our comrade Vorîn, who has a focus on this basis, saw the work of Hêzên Taybet as the field where he could best practice these thoughts, and he participated in these studies voluntarily.
Hêzên Taybet primarily wanted to create an Apoist personality in herself, and for this, she attached great importance to her education. Our comrade Vorîn, who has a curious personality, constantly researched and tried to understand the philosophy of the Leadership in all its details, in discussion with his comrades, and to practice it in his life on this basis. However, our comrade Vorîn, who realized that he would be a pioneer militant with an Apoist personality, achieved this to a great extent with his stance in life and the selfless manner in his participation. He gave a great effort in every work he took part in and did his best for the successful conclusion of that work. Our comrade Vorîn, who can organize himself against difficult conditions and tasks, has created a strong self-discipline in himself.
Our comrade Vorîn, who successfully represented the honest and sincere characteristics of the village culture and the Apoist philosophy in his personality, also shared his love for our people and our country Kurdistan with his comrades. A comrade, Vorîn has been a source of morale and strength to his comrades with his smile, which he never missed because of our comrade. With these features, it has always been a sought after person.
Our comrade Vorîn, who has empowered himself militarily and ideologically, undertook important duties at a young age. Our comrade Vorîn, who took on the task of team commander in the mobile team war, which forms the basis of the historical resistance developed against the invasion attacks of the enemy, has successfully fulfilled this duty. Our comrade Vorîn, who fought selflessly in the face of the attacks developed by the enemy and became a martyr, joined the caravan of martyrs as one of the simplest examples of honesty and self-sacrifice.
We express our condolences to all our patriotic people of Kurdistan, especially to the valuable families of our comrades Güven and Vorîn, with the determination that we will definitely realize our claim of Free Leadership and Free Kurdistan, which is their biggest dream.”
