Turkey attacks women in particular because it knows that the Women's Movement represents its greatest threat. The most opposed to the fascism of the Turkish state are the women who, fighting together, become the greatest life and freedom. Jin, jiyan, azadi! #SiyasiTutsaklaraSesOl

In yesterday's airstrikes in Tel Tamer by fascist #Turkey , our comrade the #ypj commander Sosin Efrin was martyred. She said "We are fighting a system not a state... We are fighting to liberate the society," and she lived by that.

6 years ago, 62 people were martyred due to a massacre by ISIS in Qamishli, Rojava. Until 2019 Baghuz fell& the defeat of ISIS was announced, the people of NES gave great sacrifices to defeat ISIS& liberate the world from its threat. Today, Turkey threatens exactly those people.

Today would be the 30th birthday of Anna (Hêlîn Qereçox). She fell in Afrin in 2018 while defending the revolution in Rojava. She sacrificed her life for a free life for all people. Because of this, she has become immortal & lives on in our struggle. #AnnaCampbellIsImmortal
