BEHDINAN – Making a written statement, HPG-BİM stated the following:
“The Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla has fulfilled its duty to defend our people, regardless of the price, with the selfless war it has developed in every period of its struggle against the genocidal attacks against our people. It has never taken a step back against all kinds of inhuman attacks of the invaders, has always renewed itself, enlarged the struggle, and has always kept our people’s hopes for freedom alive. In the face of the invasion operation launched by the invading Turkish army on April 14, 2022, the freedom guerrilla, which turned every inch into an area of resistance in Zap, Avaşîn and Metina, used many tactics intertwined and richly, inflicting great blows on the invaders. The reality of the invading Turkish soldier was revealed with the revolutionary operations carried out with the mobile guerrilla teams, Every hill of Kurdistan has been turned into a fortress with the epic resistances at the resistance positions. Our comrades Göksu, Avent, Tolhildan and Dilsoz, who have been in mobile guerrilla teams since the beginning of the invading attacks, have pioneered the successful implementation of mobile team warfare by responding with a counterattack to every attack that the enemy wants to develop. Our comrades Göksu, Avent, Tolhildan and Dilsoz, who believe that their struggle with great faith and determination will definitely lead to victory, reached martyrdom as exemplary self-defense militants with their struggle and resistance along the Zîlan line. Our comrades Tolhildan and Dilsoz have pioneered the successful practice of mobile team warfare by responding with a counterattack to every attack the enemy wishes to develop.
We reiterate our promise that we will expand the struggles of these valuable comrades, who are the representatives of sacrifice and laboring personality, by taking part in every stage of the struggle, from the preparation of resistance positions to the development of mobile team warfare, by adhering to their memories.”
The identities of the four guerrillas who were martyred are as follows:

Code Name: Göksu Avesta Name Surname: Nûcan Durak Place of Birth: Şirinex Mother – Father Name: Nazlı – Haşim Martyrdom Date and Place: 4 July 2022 / Zap |
“Botan, Kurdistan’s center of resistance, has led the freedom struggle of our people, who have faced many genocidal attacks throughout history. With the PKK’s joint emergence, our people from Botan have been an indomitable follower of Leader Apo’s philosophy from the very beginning, and despite all the attacks, they did not allow the invasion and the occupier. Our comrade Göksu was born in Sirnex, Dêrgul, a stronghold of patriotic culture, to a patriotic family that is strongly attached to this resistance tradition. Like every honorable Kurd who adheres to the resistance line and wants to live freely, She grew up witnessing the dirty attacks of the fascist Turkish state and army from an early age. The assimilation applied on our oppressed people, Our comrade Göksu, who saw the reality of the enemy closely with the attacks of denial and destruction, both felt great anger at the enemy and started to develop a greater sensitivity towards the freedom struggle of our people. As a young and honorable Kurdish woman, our comrade Göksu, who has struggled to create a free woman identity by not accepting the reality of women that the system has condemned to live in slavery, has always been very excited about the philosophy of Leader Apo and has been in an effort to understand it better. Our comrade, who acquired patriotism and resistant spirit from hER childhood, as the daughter of a people who has resisted for years throughout history, lived socially deeply and once again brought patriotism to the top with the PKK, our Party has always had a great interest in the PKK.
Our comrade believed that our people create their own strength with the reality of the PKK, has always preserved and tried to develop the strong personality traits that she acquired in a patriotic family that had to leave her village in 1993 as a result of the pressure of the state. It was during her high school years and university that she consciously kneaded the patriotic feelings she received from the resistance people and added herself to the guerrilla ranks. Our comrade Göksu, who attracted attention as a hardworking and successful student, did not accept the life offered by the system despite having won the Middle East Technical University, and, knowing that the people could not be peaceful and free without being free, he rejected all these opportunities and joined the PKK life, which she would call the main school for her, in 2014. She had chosen to be a militant based on walking in the footsteps of Leader Apo.
Aware of the assimilation policies carried out against Kurdish youth in the fascist Turkish state schools, Comrade Göksu wanted to respond to these special war policies and the inhuman isolation carried out against our Leader, who made the greatest sacrifice for humanity and our people. Our comrade, who joined the guerrilla ranks in Cudi, in the land of Botan where he was born and grew up, understood Leader Apo more as patriotism, free woman and freedom consciousness developed in her own person, and that Leader Apo could not be free as a woman, as a people, or as a humanity without removing the physical conditions of captivity. Knowing the truth, she joined the struggle strongly.
Comrade Göksu’s first education in Cûdî was Martyr Gelhat, one of our commanders who became legendary in the PKK with his stance and war. During her practice in Botan, she was influenced by the lifes and comradeships of many valuable pioneers, especially Martyr Xeyrî, Martyr Arjin, and Martyr Hebûn, and by taking the first perspectives of guerrilla in their personalities, she reinforced her decision. Having received her basic education in Botan, she stepped into professional guerrillaism and the warmth of her existing comradely relations enabled her to overcome all obstacles in front of her. Our comrade Göksu has been in a constant state of development with the claim of becoming a professional guerrilla by becoming competent in the military field. Comrade Göksu, who took her place at the forefront of the historical resistance against ISIS gangs that carried out genocidal attacks against our people and although she was wounded twice, she did not break away from the hot war front. Our comrade returned to the mountains of Kurdistan after successfully completing her duty in the war against gangs, shared her strong war experience with her comrades and duly fulfilled her pioneering mission as a qualified YJA Star guerrilla in every field she was in. Comrade Göksu joined Hêzên Taybet with the desire to make stronger breakthroughs, she had a strong participation there too, with the ideological and military level she created in her personality. Our comrade Göksu, who never lacked the smiles she reflected in her eyes with the peace she created in her soul by meeting her own reality in the PKK, making progress in liberation as a Kurd and as a woman, and the love of life taught by the PKK life, became the embodiment of the woman who was liberated in the PKK. Our comrade Göksu, who is based on sacrifice in the line of Zîlan, has always managed to have a militant stance with his life and war. Cenga Xabûrê Martyr was one of the pioneers of the Battle of Maraş Revolutionary Campaign, as one of our comrades, who dealt the first blow to the invaders with his comrades, during the invasion attacks launched by the invading Turkish army on the areas of Zap, Metîna and Avaşîn on April 14, 2022. Comrade Göksu, who took part in many actions in Girê Hakkarî and Girê Amediyê Resistance Areas and successfully applied the mobile team style with her comrades, dealt effective blows to the fascist Turkish army.
Our comrade Göksu, who managed to become the valiant militant of the PKK and PAJK line and the name of life in Zîlan, has earned the respect and love of all her comrades with her great comradely love and enthusiasm for life. We repeat once again the promise that we will crown the struggle of our comrade Göksu, who proudly carried the flag of the fighters and left a great legacy of struggle behind her, with victory.

Our people in Rojava, who were forced to live by being deprived of their freedom and most basic rights under the pressures of the Baath regime for many years, are condemned to a life without an identity in the ancient lands of Kurdistan, where they have lived for thousands of years. With the “Arab Belt” policy that it put into effect in 1974, the Syrian regime forcibly forced our people from their lands and put into effect the plan to Arabize Rojava Kurdistan.

Comrade Avent was always in search throughout her life before joining the guerrilla ranks, has always kept the dream of a free Kurdistan alive in her heart and has patiently and stubbornly overcame all the obstacles she encountered.

TOLHILDAN TÎRÊJ
The colonial position of Holy Kurdistan has caused tremendous anger in our comrade Avent. Our comrade, who knows very well what it means to be under the threat of genocide in the physical, political and cultural sense, has always repeated his oath that he will take revenge on the colonialists against this genocide. He always prepared himself against enemy attack. He always wanted to be at the forefront in the face of the invasion attacks of the colonial Turkish army, achieved this goal with his insistence, and was one of our comrades who dealt the first blow to the invaders.

Our comrade Avent, who took part in many actions and narrowed the Resistance Areas to the invaders,
We reiterate the promise of our comrade Avent, who walked along the lines of PKK and PAJK without hesitation throughout his revolutionary life, and who succeeded in becoming a militant worthy of Leader Apo by sacrificing both in his life and in his war based on the Zîlan line, that we will crown the struggle with victory.
Our party, the PKK, which emerged under the leadership of Leader Apo at a time when the politics of genocide and destruction against our people were experienced most intensely and the reality of Kurds and Kurdistan was brought to the brink of extinction, resurrected the hope of freedom for our oppressed people. Our city of Mêrdin became one of the centers where the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle became integrated with our people and became a mass and serhildan culture was created. Our comrade Tolhildan was born and grew up in a patriotic family that did not lose its loyalty to the patriotic line despite all the attacks and oppression, and was forced to migrate to Istanbul as a result of the pressures of the colonialist Turkish state from Merdîn, Kerboran, where the culture of resistance was strong. Our comrade has never lost the patriotic consciousness and culture he inherited from his family, despite living in Turkish metropolises that have been turned into assimilation centers for Kurds. Growing up in a family with martyrs and their participation in the ranks of the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle enabled our comrade to get to know our Party from an early age and to follow it closely. Our comrade, who never accepted the attacks and the genocidal policies developed by the colonial Turkish state against our people, sought a struggle.
Our comrade Tolhildan, who participated in youth work in Europe in 2015, wanted to be in more resistance as he got to know the philosophy of Leader Apo and the PKK’s line of struggle, and joined the ranks of the struggle in 2017. Until 2019, he carried out studies in many fields, especially in Europe, and had a great effort in helping tens of Kurdish youth meet their true identity and join the resistance ranks. Our comrade, who constantly increased his resistance line and his participation in the struggle, reached the mountains of Kurdistan and joined the historical struggle in order to break the heavy isolation on Leader Apo and to respond to the intense attacks of the fascist Turkish state.
Our comrade, who quickly adapts to the Kurdistan mountains and guerrilla life with his young, dynamic and lively energy, has created a great development ground for himself both in the military and ideological fields. Our comrade Tolhildan, who became an expert guerrilla with the military training he received and enriched his experience by sharing it with his comrades, became an exemplary practice with his strong participation and devotion to the Party line.

DILSOZ SERHED
Our comrade Dilsoz was born in a patriotic family in Afrin, where patriotism and devotion to Kurdish culture and national characteristics are at their deepest in Kurdistan. Due to these characteristics of his family, our comrade Dilsoz was also familiar with the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle from an early age. Comrade Dilsoz, who was at the beginning of his youth in the years when the Rojava Freedom Revolution began to develop, was sensing and trying to understand the changes taking place in his environment. The positive impact of the revolution on our society has started to be seen in the life of our comrade Dilsoz day by day. After witnessing the heavy oppression and torture inflicted on our people during the times when the BAAS Regime was effective, with the development of the Rojava Freedom Revolution, he enjoyed the feeling of freedom, has realized that it is necessary to fight for these times of freedom to be permanent for all of our people. Being aware of the fact that this created atmosphere of freedom develops at the expense of the precious efforts and lives of our martyrs, he believed that he too, as a Kurdish youth, should take part in the struggle. However, due to his young age for military work, his wish was not fulfilled at first. Comrade Dilsoz was deeply impressed by the fact that the colonialist Turkish state carried out massacres against our people in the invasion attack launched against Afrin in 2018 and forced our people to migrate, and he thought that our people should definitely be avenged. Comrade Dilsoz, who joined the ranks in 2018, has become a competent fighter with the training he received. In a short time, his advanced intelligence level was noticed by his comrades, It was taken into training studies to use the war technique used today against the enemy. After successfully completing his training, he wanted to fulfill his duties and responsibilities as a young militant by carrying out many actions against the invasion attacks launched by the enemy against Girê Sipî and Serêkaniyê. Our comrade Dilsoz, whose face is always in the mountains of freedom, decided to join the guerrilla ranks after the war and believed that the enemy can only be defeated by guerrilla warfare. After successfully completing his training, he wanted to fulfill his duties and responsibilities as a young militant by carrying out many actions against the invasion attacks launched by the enemy against Girê Sipî and Serêkaniyê.

Our comrade Dilsoz, whose face is always in the mountains of freedom, decided to join the guerrilla ranks after the war and believed that the enemy can only be defeated by guerrilla warfare.
After joining the guerrilla ranks, he was able to immediately understand what was told and put them into practice thanks to his quick wit during the New Warriors training he saw. Therefore, he made great progress in a short time and became a successful warrior and a promising commander candidate. Our comrade Dilsoz, who moved to Avaşîn area as a team commander after the training, first met with comrades Serhed Giravi and Şerzan Qaşûrî, who were the symbol commanders of the Bazên Zagrosê Revolutionary Campaign, and got his first practical experience from these valuable comrades. Comrade Dilsoz, who was impressed by the morale and participation of these comrades in life, took our comrades Serhed and Şerzan as an example. A short while later, our comrade Dilsoz, who moved to the Zap area, made a proposal to be included in the work of Hêzên Taybet, and his proposal was accepted.
During his work, Hêzên Taybet always broke his heart with the epic resistance that developed in Avaşîn and the Zap area, became more angry with the enemy in the face of the martyrdom of many of his comrades, and embraced more practical work with the strength he received from these martyrdoms. Our comrade Dilsoz, who knows well that the best answer to the reality of martyrdom is to increase the struggle, has improved himself both spiritually and militarily. He thought that he should always be on the alert against a possible enemy attack, and he continued all his work on this axis.
Comrade Dilsoz, who was in the Girê Cûdî Resistance Area during the period when the invasion attacks, which started on April 14, 2022, spread to the west of the Zap, was among the first teams to meet the enemy. Dilsoz and our comrades have dealt effective blows to the enemy in every attempt the enemy wants to land on the resistance area, and has shown the occupiers that this invasion attack will not come without a cost. Our comrade Dilsoz, who has made a great sacrifice for the effective development of mobile team warfare, has always acted with the responsibility of being worthy of all our martyrs in the person of Serhed Giravi and Şerzan Qaşûrî, and has developed his participation to the extent of self-sacrifice.
We would like to express our condolences to all our patriotic people of Kurdistan, especially to the valuable families of our comrades Göksu, Avent, Tolhildan and Dilsoz, who were the pioneers of the Cenga Xabûr Martyr War Maraş Revolutionary Campaign.
