Erdoğan’s Fascist regime, its accomplice Daesh gangs and its spy, who are always hostile to the Rojava revolution and its creators, leading women, want to achieve their concept of annihilation and defeat women’s power with their brutal attacks every day. By targeting the revolution, it wants to destroy the power of women who lead the struggle for freedom. The fact that these attacks are taking place in front of the coalition forces and Russia in the region, these forces turn a blind eye to these attacks and do not respond, that’s why we say that as much as the forces attack, the forces turn a blind eye to these attacks. partners and responsible for these attacks.

Roj Khabûr and our fellow member of the YAT Forces, Barîn Botan, who participated in the 10th anniversary of the revolution forum held in Qamishli, were martyred as a result of the drone attack after leaving.
