ERDAL DOGAN
Our comrade Erdal was born as a member of a Persian family in the Dashpesek village of the city of Xoy in Rojhilatê Kurdistan, where the Iranian state implemented the policies that set the peoples against each other and thus aimed to establish more control over those peoples. The family of our comrade Erdal is a working family in its own right. Our comrade Erdal has also tried to contribute to his family’s economy by dealing with agriculture with his family since his childhood. In 2004, from the Kurdish workers with whom he worked at the beginning of his youth, our party heard about the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle led by the PKK, and the freedom struggle carried out by our party attracted his attention. Over time, his interest in our Party and Leader Apo has increased day by day. Especially as Leader Apo got to know his reality, this influence turned into a commitment. Leader Apo’s philosophy is the only philosophy and ideology that will make all the peoples of the Middle East live in peace and tranquility; in this sense, it has reached the awareness that the Leadership is not only the leadership of the Kurdish people, but all the peoples of the Middle East. As a young man from the Middle East, who is also the people’s garden, he believed that he should join the philosophy of our Leader and the freedom struggle he started, and in 2006 he turned to the center of the resistance, the mountains of Kurdistan.
Our comrade Erdal turned to practice in the spring of 2007 after he received his first training in the field of Xakûrkê. He carried out guerrilla activities in the Xakûrkê and Şemzînan areas for about 3 years. During this 3-year practical period, our comrade Erdal gained experience in many areas and became a valuable militant and commander of our party PKK. Comrade Erdal, who was injured in his eye as a result of an unfortunate accident, returned to his place after receiving treatment and continued his work from where he was. In this sense, no obstacle was enough to withdraw our comrade Erdal from the cause he believed in. After his Zorlu Xakûrkê and Şemzînan practices, he studied at the Party Central School Mazlum Doğan Academy. During his education, he deepened himself in Leader Apo’s ideology and guerrilla warfare tactics. With the strength and morale he gained from training, he participated in the revolutionary operation developed in the areas of Xakûrkê and Şemzînan in 2011-2012. In the revolutionary operation developed under the leadership of our comrade Martyr Reşit Serdar, our comrade Erdal participated in many actions and dealt heavy blows to the enemy. Our comrade Erdal, who moved to the Cîlo area with the task of unit commander due to his success in this revolutionary operation, succeeded in gaining a place in the hearts of all his comrades with his hardworking, self-sacrificing and humble stance. Again, with his experience and courage, he led all his comrades and protected his term duties and set an example for his comrades. Our comrade Erdal, who moved to the Oremar area in 2016, carried out effective actions against the enemy here as well, almost making life difficult for the enemy. Acting with a full sense of duty, our comrade Erdal was there whenever needed, The organization fulfilled its duties successfully and with the awareness of being worthy of its martyred comrades. On this basis, our comrade Erdal, who moved to the Cîlo area again in 2017, shouldered more burdens as the battalion commander. He personally took part in the operation launched by the enemy in the spring of 2017, immediately organized his comrades with his courageous stance and launched a counterattack against the enemy. Dozens of enemy soldiers were punished in the intense clashes, and our comrade Erdal froze to martyrdom due to heavy snow and blizzard when they set out for the base areas with his 3 comrades.
