DILSHAD GEVER
The family of our comrade Dilşad, like millions of Kurds, has been subjected to oppression, violence and torture by the genocidal colonialist Turkish state. The Turkish state’s burning of thousands of villages in the 1990s in order to massacre the Kurds, and its desire to de-Kurds Kurdistan, drove millions of our people from their villages and homes. One of the families who had to leave their homeland was the family of our comrade Dilşad. That is why our comrade Dilşad was born in Ninova, to a patriotic family from Colemêrg. After a while, when the Nineveh camp was burned down, our patriotic people went to Maxmur and established the Maxmur camp here after great difficulties and great struggles. Our comrade Dilshad grew up in the Maxmur camp with the deep patriotic feelings and culture of our people. He studied freely in his mother tongue in Maxmur for 3 years. What he learned in these 3 years and in life has guided him for a lifetime. In 2004, the family of our comrade Dilşad moved to Gever and returned to their homeland. But the oppression and persecution of the Turkish state against the family did not end. For this reason, our comrade Dilshad felt a great grudge against the genocidal colonialist Turkish state and stated that one day he would definitely take his revenge. There have been many participation in the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle from the close family of our comrade Dilşad, including her sister, uncle’s daughters and uncle’s sons. These participations naturally affected our comrade Dilşad and drew him into more struggles. Our comrade Dilşad was taken into custody by the Turkish state at a young age, and he was personally acquainted with the brutal and brutal face of the state. From the day he was born, our comrade Dilshad said to himself, He took a stand by saying “enough is enough” to those who have been given to his family and people and decided to join the active struggle. On this basis, he joined the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla in 2012.
Our comrade Dilşad immediately adapted to the guerrilla because he knew, knew and lived through our party PKK since his childhood. His longing for the mountains, his anger at the enemy, and his devotion to the cause of freedom of our people led to early development. After receiving his first guerrilla training, he practiced for 1 year in Garê and 2 years in Metîna. Our comrade Dilşad participated in the life of the PKK with great love and enthusiasm, and was known among his friends for his working personality and self-sacrifice. Our comrade Dilşad, who established the Apoist militancy measures in his personality and deepened in the line, also set himself as a goal to develop in the art of military service. On this basis, he received specialized training in the military academy, focused on guerrilla tactics and prepared himself for important tasks. The unwavering participation and firm stance of our comrade Dilşad set an example for all his comrades. Our comrade Dilshad went to the Zagros to achieve greater success and inflict effective blows on the enemy. He also took on important duties in the Zagros, took responsibility in the Zap area, and devotedly participated in it. Our comrade Dilşad has set an example for all his comrades with his incalculable comradeship, his sincere smile, his moral participation and his enemy consciousness that he always keeps alive. He was martyred in the enemy attack that took place while he was on duty with a group of his comrades. The dream of living free in Free Kurdistan, which is the biggest longing of our comrade Dilşad from the moment he opened his eyes to life, will be made by us comrades as the reason for the greatest struggle, and his goals and dreams will definitely be realized.

QEHREMAN AMANOS
Our comrade Qehreman Amanos was born in the city of Amude in Rojavayê Kurdistan. Our comrade Qehreman grew up in a patriotic family belonging to the Gabarî tribe, with the awareness of his Kurdish identity and patriotic feelings. His uncle’s four children joined the guerrilla ranks. The fact that his family is a patriotic family with martyrs has also been decisive in the formation of the personality and character of our comrade Qehreman. Our comrade Qehreman studied for 11 years. However, these schools were abandoned after a while because they were colonial schools that were imposed on the Kurdish people by the colonialists and denied the Kurdish language and reality. However, the Syrian state forced our comrade Qehreman into military service and forced him to do his military service for 2 years. The peoples’ spring process, which shook the entire Middle East in 2011, also deeply affected Syria. This process, which carries the revolutionary developments in its heart, has been distorted on the basis of foreign powers and fascist nation-state structures in the region and has turned into a reason for intervention in Syria, and many gang organizations with different names have been formed and the spring of the peoples has been tried to be turned upside down. However, under the leadership of the Kurdish people, the Arab, Assyrian-Assyrian and Armenian peoples in North-East Syria carried out the Rojava Freedom Revolution, which later turned into the North-East Syrian Autonomous Administration, which set an example for a solution to the entire Middle East crisis. This example of a revolutionary exit and a free life has been achieved by paying a great price, by frustrating the games of the forces of capitalist modernity, by spoiling the plans of the regional nation-states, and by repelling numerous gang attacks. The peoples of North-East Syria have paid great prices,
Our comrade Qehreman also participated in this revolution process in March 2012, taking on the duty of self-defense. The Rojava Freedom Revolution has created a paradise in the Middle East hell and has become a hope for all oppressed peoples and humanity. Our comrade Qehreman has also been involved in this process with his whole being without hesitation. In order to protect the Rojava Freedom Revolution, he ran breathlessly from position to position, from front to front, fought relentlessly and participated in numerous successful actions with his high courage. Our comrade Qehreman, who proudly carries out the duty of defending the revolution without stopping, got involved in the education process in 2015, deepened in the Apoist ideology and philosophy, and made himself a self-sacrificing defender of the Rojava Freedom Revolution. Our comrade Qehreman, who took more responsibility after the training, He served as a commander in the fight against ISIS and Al Qaeda remnant gangs. Comrade Qehreman has won the love and respect of both our people and his comrades in all environments he has been in, with his sincere personality, sincere participation, popular approach and great love for the country. Although he fought effectively against the gangs, he saw that the gangs and fascism in the Middle East originated from the Turkish state and the AKP-MHP regime pursuing Neo-Ottoman dreams. Many gang organizations, especially ISIS, were fed and financed by the Turkish state, gathered from all over the world via Turkey and sent to Syrian lands, and the oppressed Kurdish people were attacked by MIT by making them the target of gang organizations. Our comrade Qehreman, who sees this reality with his eyes on the battlefield, He decided that it was necessary to turn to the real source of fascism and gangs and end them. On this basis, he left the Rojava Freedom Forces in 2017 and joined the guerrilla ranks. Our comrade Qehreman wanted to meet with the mountains of Kurdistan with great love to repay his debt to the people and the great gratitude he felt to the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla, which made great contributions to the Rojava Freedom Revolution. However, as a result of the attack carried out by the genocidal colonialist Turkish state during the transition to the Medya Defense Zones, he was martyred with a group of his comrades. Our comrade Qehreman died early, with a longing for the mountains of Kurdistan in his heart, dreams of freedom for his people, and important tasks to accomplish for his country. Our comrade Qehreman, who sees Kurdistan as a whole, does not distinguish between any of its parts, exemplary participation, which sees it as a duty to struggle all over Kurdistan with a deep national consciousness and love of the people, is a historical truth that should be taken as an example by all Kurdistan youth. By continuing this exemplary participation of Comrade Qehreman as his successors, we reiterate our promise to realize our goal of Free Leadership, Free Kurdistan.

EGID ZILAN
Our comrade Egîd Zilan was born in the Wan Erdîş district, in the Geliyê Zîlan region. The fact that he was born in Geliyê Zilan, where thousands of members of the Kurdish people were brutally murdered by the genocidal and colonialist Turkish state, has been decisive in the life of our comrade Egîd. He grew up with the awareness of the suffering of our people in Geliyê Zilan, and felt the pain of thousands of our martyrs, who did not even have a grave. That’s why our comrade Egîd has grown up with the awareness of the truth of the country he lives in, the people he belongs to and what kind of a genocide attack this people is facing. He became socially conscious at a very young age. Since our comrade Egîd is a smart and successful young man, he won the department of business administration at the university and went to university. He did not prefer the life offered to him by capitalist modernity and the Turkish state system in the university environment, and became a seeker of a life in which his people would have a free future. As a result of these searches, he became interested in the revolutionary patriotic youth with the culture he received from his patriotic family and became involved in its activities. While carrying out youth activities on the one hand, he also tried to raise awareness by reading as an enlightened youth. He was deeply affected by the recognition of the Apoist movement and its ideology of women’s liberation. The predominance of feudalism and the ignorance of women, especially in the social reality in which she grew up, caused a deep contradiction in our comrade Egîd, and she was very happy when she saw that women could only be liberated with the ideology of women’s freedom. She took this character of the Apoist movement and Apoist ideology as her motto that women’s freedom is the basis of social freedom, and aimed to be a free individual on the line of women’s freedom. With his dynamic and active structure in youth work, he attracted the attention of the enemy and was taken into custody. Even though the genocidal fascist enemy thought that he would intimidate our comrade Egîd by putting them under pressure, he became even more sharpened, his anger towards the enemy increased and he decided to take the road to the mountains. In 2013 she turned her face to the free mountains of Kurdistan and joined the guerrilla ranks. Even though the genocidal fascist enemy thought that he would intimidate our comrade Egîd by putting them under pressure, he became even more sharpened, his anger towards the enemy increased and he decided to take the road to the mountains. In 2013, he turned his face to the free mountains of Kurdistan and joined the guerrilla ranks. Even though the genocidal fascist enemy thought that he would intimidate our comrade Egîd by putting them under pressure, he became even more sharpened, his anger towards the enemy increased and he decided to take the road to the mountains. In 2013, he turned his face to the free mountains of Kurdistan and joined the guerrilla ranks.
Our comrade Egîd, who started his guerrilla practice in the Medya Defense Zones, had no difficulty in adapting to the guerrilla life as he was a mountain Kurdish youth. He quickly reached the level of an experienced guerrilla by taking his comrades as an example and applying what he learned from them. Since he is an Aydın Kurdish youth, wherever he finds an opportunity, whenever the opportunity arises, he immediately takes his book and reads it, clings to his pen and writes. Our comrade Egîd aimed to be an exemplary Apoist militant by embodying the unity of theory and practice in a balanced way. It has already taken its name from our great commander Mahsum Korkmaz and has determined the purpose of being a victory guerrilla from the very first day. He stayed and practiced in the fields of Metîna and Heftanîn, worked in these areas and showed significant benefits.
When ISIS fascism afflicted the Kurdish people in 2014 and started to carry out massacres against the Kurdish people everywhere from Shengal to Kobanê, from Maxmur to Pirsus, our comrade Egîd took up arms like all the honorable Apoist revolutionaries and fought against ISIS to protect our people and our country. He went to the places he was going to. For more than three years, he fought against gangs in many different areas and on many fronts, ran from action to action with his high courage, dealt heavy blows to the gangs and pushed them back. By inflicting the heaviest blows on ISIS fascism, it has fulfilled its great humanitarian and patriotic duty. Our comrade Egîd turned to the free mountains of Kurdistan in 2017, after he fulfilled his duty to fight against ISIS. All of the ISIS and al-Qaeda remnant gangs are fed by the Turkish state, As long as the fascist AKP-MHP special war regime in Turkey, it has seen that the gang attacks against our people will not stop, and it has seen that it is necessary to turn to the main source of fascism. With this awareness, he reached martyrdom with a group of his comrades as a result of the developing attack of the Turkish state during a period when he moved to the Medya Defense Zones. Even the event where our comrade Egîd was martyred is a historical proof and an exemplary event that shows how the Turkish state backed the ISIS gangs and tried to achieve what ISIS failed to achieve with their own hands. From Turkish fascism embodied as the AKP-MHP regime to the reactionary ISIS gangs, our comrade Egîd, who struggles with the dream of high courage, great faith and freedom in many parts of Kurdistan, will always guide us and his memory will illuminate us like a torch.

AGIR ERDEXAN
Our comrade was born in Erdexan, the city of Serhed. Although he had to live away from the reality of his own people at first due to the place and environment his family lived in, he later went on certain searches and made an effort to return to his essence. He continued his searches in Erzurum, where he went to study at university. Despite all the special war tools used by the capitalist system and the Turkish state, which carries out colonial policy in Kurdistan, to bring down the Kurdish youth, our comrade Agir insisted on returning to his essence. He met the Apoist youth during the most difficult periods of his life, and was influenced by their comradeship relations and their efforts to add meaning to life, and opened a new page in his life. The attack of fascist groups on Kurdish students in Erzurum attracted the attention of our comrade Agir. This injustice suffered by Kurdish students, He did not accept injustice and oppression.

Our comrade Agir, who was influenced by the stances and lifestyles of the Kurdish students at the university, further enhanced his friendship and rapprochement with the Kurdish students. During this meeting, he both tried to understand the struggle and tried to return to his essence as a Kurdish youth. Over time, our comrade Agir understood his identity, culture, the reality of the people and the country and brought them to consciousness.

In this process, which can be called the spring of his life, his devotion and love for life have increased day by day. Our comrade Agir, who has been involved in youth work for about a year, has waged an active struggle in this process, and has undertaken important tasks in the awareness and organization of Kurdish youth like himself. Expressing that his meeting with the Leader Apo philosophy was his second birth, our comrade Agir turned his face to the mountains of Kurdistan on April 4, 2014, the birthday of our Leader, and joined the guerrilla ranks.
Expressing his participation in the guerrilla as “rebirth”, our comrade Agir joined the guerrilla life, which he had just started, with great enthusiasm and excitement. From the very first moment, he was influenced by the mountain and guerrilla life. The basic principles of PKK life, where comradely ties are strong, no one is superior to anyone, equality and freedom are lived to the full, also formed the basis of our comrade Agir’s participation in the Party. Our comrade Agir, who concluded the New Warriors training period with great enthusiasm and incalculable participation, started practical work as a competent guerrilla.

In these works, he did not accept any measure other than success and spent a unique effort and effort. Later, he received military, ideological and commanding training at the Mahsum Korkmaz Academy, and had the opportunity to further deepen himself in the new period guerrilla. He also benefited from the experiences of his comrades during the training process and was involved in the war process as a professional guerrilla. After the academy, he moved to the field of Metîna with the task of team commander. He was involved in the war process here, and with his militant stance and simple and modest life, he managed to become an exemplary Apoist militant. Our comrade Agir, who was martyred in the enemy attack in the Girê Ortê area of Metîna, has become one of the best examples of how individuals armed with Apoist philosophy stand up, make life beautiful and reach the truth with the revolutionary march. We repeat once again the promise of our comrade Agir, who sets an example for all his comrades with his struggle and personality, that we will achieve his great goals.

NUMAN AMED
Our comrade Numan was born in a patriotic family in the Pasur district of Amed. He started to recognize our struggle from an early age due to his family’s participation in our Party ranks and martyrdoms. Again, the migration of his family to the center of Amed due to the enemy’s oppression has made a place in the consciousness of our comrade Numan, and because of this, the enemy felt great anger. After emigrating to Amed, our comrade Numan tried to better understand the reality of the struggle by reading and researching, since his close circle was in the ranks of the struggle. In this process, our comrade Numan felt great anger towards the enemy when he learned about the attacks, massacres and massacres of the enemy against our people, and his desire to eliminate our people through genocide, and to raise awareness of these. The enemy’s attack on our people and the brutal murder of dozens of innocent and innocent people in many cities of Bakure Kurdistan, especially in Amed in 2006, deeply affected our comrade Numan and prompted him to fight more. From this date on, he took part in the struggle at certain levels and succeeded in transforming his anger towards the enemy into actions. The fact that the enemy did not make any concessions from the massacres committed and the genocidal policy towards our people caused our comrade Numan to fight harder as a Kurdish youth and patriot. Our comrade Numan, who foresees that only with an active and radical struggle, the enemy can be defeated and the genocidal policy on our people can be disintegrated,
Our comrade Numan, who joined the guerrilla in the Amed area, was influenced by the guerrilla and mountain life from the very first moment. For this reason, he always regretted why he could not join the guerrilla ranks sooner. For this reason, he wanted to gain the time he lost by participating in life actively, excitedly and without reckoning, and he wanted to gain the experience that could be gained for years as soon as possible. Comrade Numan, who benefited from the experiences of his comrades during his stay in Amed, became a competent guerrilla in a short time.
