BEHDINAN – HPG Press Center stated the following regarding the martyred guerrillas:
“Within the framework of the attacks of the genocidal Turkish state, which aimed to destroy the freedom hopes of our people and bring the genocide policy to a conclusion by liquidating the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla, an intense war process took place in many areas of Kurdistan, especially in the Medya Defense Areas. During this war, the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrillas fought selflessly from Avaşîn to Zap, from Metîna to Bakurê Kurdistan and managed to frustrate the raw dreams of the enemy. Our comrades Eser, Şoreş, Raman, Dildar and Zana, who did not allow the enemy to pass by making great sacrifices during the intense war process, were martyred on different dates in the enemy attacks.
We extend our condolences to all our patriotic people of Kurdistan, especially to the valuable families of our comrades Eser, Şoreş, Raman, Dildar and Zana, who joined the guerrilla ranks from all over Kurdistan and took part in the freedom struggle of our people and set an example to all Kurdistan youth with their self-sacrificing stances and their lives full of struggle.
The identity information of our comrades who reached martyrdom is as follows:

EŞER SAVAŞ
Our comrade Eser was born in a patriotic family in the Kerboran district of Merdîn, which went down in the history of our people’s resistance by adding his most valiant sons to our freedom struggle. The participation and martyrdom of her close relatives and his living in a region with patriotic characteristics such as Kerboran naturally enabled our comrade Eser to get to know our party PKK from an early age. As a young Kurdish woman, she deeply felt the enemy oppression of our people and the genocidal attacks she faced, and she thought that she should definitely take a stand against it. Again, she felt a great anger against the traditional approaches that were imposed on women in society and that did not exceed the status of slavery. Our comrade, who knows very well that the best attitude against both the slavery status imposed on women and hostile tendencies is to struggle, she focused on the form of struggle for a long time and determined to join the guerrilla ranks as a necessity. Our comrade, who consciously chose to join the guerrilla, joined our ranks in 2014 from the Botan field.
After working as a guerrilla in the Botan area for a short time, Comrade Eser, who moved to the Medya Defense Zones, received her first training and quickly adapted to the mountain and guerrilla life. She consciously approached the issues of how the revolutionary march should be in the guerrilla ranks, and never accepted an ordinary march for herself. Our comrade, who questions his whole life and personality against the reality of the Leadership, has always taken this method as a basis and compared his participation and pace with the reality of the Leadership and martyrs. She never considered herself sufficient for this, and always sought ways to participate more. After joining the guerrilla ranks, our comrade Eser went to the Kobanê area against the attacks carried out by the ISIS gangs against our people, joined the historical Kobanê Resistance. Our comrade participated in the campaign to expel ISIS mercenaries from Kobanê and the surrounding villages, stood out with her brave and self-sacrificing qualities during the war and set an example for all her comrades. She participated in the war process unreservedly and was injured once in her foot. However, Comrade Eser recovered herself in a short time and took her place in the fight, was involved in new warrior training activities. In these works, she took care of the training of our comrades who had just joined our Party ranks, and played an important role in adapting them to the guerrilla struggle and becoming Apoist militants.
Our comrade Eser has been extremely successful in educating her comrades who have just joined the guerrilla ranks and conveying his experiences to them in this work, which she stated as my first action. At the same time, she considered it as a work to be conscientious, and believed that one should apply what she teaches to her comrades, and that she should not break from the theory-practice integrity. For this reason, our comrade Eser, deeply questioned the responsibilities that this process put on the Apoist militants, compared it with the reality of the Leadership, and concluded that she was incomplete as a YJA Star guerrilla. Our comrade was extremely modest in questioning her current level of participation, decided that she should expand her struggle more, and became involved in Hêzên Taybet’s work. Hêzên Taybet has come to the forefront with her natural personality, hardworking, self-sacrificing and honest features in her works and has managed to gain a place in the hearts of all her comrades. Our comrade Eser, who adds her own color and morale to the environment she was in, had succeeded in fulfilling her pioneering role as a YJA Star guerrilla. With these features, our comrade work has considered sacrifice as a way of life and has managed to live every moment of it according to this principle. We reiterate the promise of our comrade Eser, who was martyred in the enemy attack that took place while she was on duty in the Zap area in November 2021, that we will realize the dream of a free Leadership.

Due to the patriotic nature of his family, he grew up with a patriotic culture and was sensitive to the genocidal attacks of our people all over Kurdistan. For this, first of all, he became a peshmerga in order to fulfill his patriotic feelings and responsibilities towards our people. Our comrade, who has been a peshmerga for a long time, has brought to awareness better the enemy policies carried out in Kurdistan and the submissive line of the forces that should defend our people against these policies.

Our comrade Şoreş has made very well aware that the mountains of Kurdistan are the most important struggle area of our people, and that a freedom struggle that does not rely on the mountains has no chance of success. For this, he aimed to return to his essence with the training he received in the guerrilla ranks, and by achieving this, he set an example for all Kurdish youth. Our comrade Şoreş, who has a certain knowledge in the military sense, also learned the guerrilla warfare style through the training he received, and deepened in guerrillaism with great enthusiasm and curiosity. He has also improved himself in the philosophy of the Leadership and has taken important steps on the way to free Kurdishness. Our comrade Şoreş, who moved to the Xakurkê area after the training process, moved to the Cîlo area after gaining his first practical experience here.

It has always been in action against the destruction-oriented attacks developed by the colonialist Turkish state in the Cîlo area, and has dealt heavy blows to the invading forces with its actions. After his successful practice in the field of Cîlo, he moved to the field of Avaşîn, increased the tempo of the struggle, and made it his main goal to correctly adopt and achieve the term’s duties. Our comrade Şoreş, who stayed in the Avaşîn area for a short time, later moved to the Zap area. Our comrade Şoreş, who shared his military experiences in the field of Zap with his comrades, he has succeeded in claiming his duties on the right basis, both as a commander and as a comrade. Our comrade Şoreş, who has made the foresight required of a commander a characteristic of his personality, has always kept himself and his comrades with whom he fights ready for a possible invasion attack. He took all the necessary measures for this and was one of our comrades who responded to the invasion attacks launched by the invading Turkish army in 2021. From the first day of the invasion until the moment he reached martyrdom, he responded to the attacks of the enemy with great courage and determination, and was one of our comrades who made the Zap area a fortress of resistance by striking the invaders whenever he got the chance. The simplicity of his companionship, With his humbleness in life and his selfless and courageous participation on the battlefield, he has become the best example for all Kurdish youth who want to live with dignity as well as for all his comrades. As his comrades, we promise to continue the struggle until our comrade Şoreş realizes his dream of a free Kurdistan.
