The online portal Gerîla TV has published footage from the ongoing resistance of the guerrilla forces against the Turkish invasion of the Medya Defense Zones in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq).
Detailing the action, the People's Defense Forces (HPG) Press Center stated the following:
“At 22:00 on July 6, a Turkish unit moving with dogs towards a guerrilla position was ambushed and attacked from two flanks at 23:20. Thirteen soldiers were killed and two others wounded as a result of the action. The guerrillas then targeted helicopters dispatched to the area to transport the dead and injured. One transport helicopter was badly hit and had to leave the area in heavy smoke without recovering the bodies.”
