For the first time throughout the history of warfare, a war is being waged ferociously. For the first time, historic resistance against chemical weapons has been mounted at the highest level. Guerrillas are now sacrificing their lives in the Medya Defence Zones to protect the lands of Kurdistan, responding to the invaders and inflicting serious blows on enemy troops. Despite all the attacks, HPG and YJA Star guerrillas are putting up historic resistance in these areas.
The guerrilla has left its mark on history with its resistance from 2021 to 2022. The Turkish state held talks with all states and tried to eradicate the guerrilla with the support of Iraq, Iran and NATO. The Turkish state has tried to employ every means and methods against the guerrilla forces, but ended up unsuccessful. First, Turkey wanted to capture the guerrilla areas, especially the battle tunnels, with its troops, but when the corpses of its soldiers fell into the hands of the guerrillas, it changed its warfare style out of fear.
Turkish troops tried to control the guerrillas in the battle tunnels with trained dogs. When this plan did not work, they wanted to destroy these tunnels with very effective explosives. However, they have not achieved any result so far, because each time Turkish soldiers attempt to approach battle tunnels, they are attacked by guerrillas, and are forced to withdraw. Recently, the invaders have been placing explosives at the entrances of the tunnels and detonating them. Guerrilla forces released images that show how the invading Turkish army moves around the entrances of the battle tunnels. The images show Turkish soldiers trying to demolish the guerrilla tunnels with diggers.
The Turkish army is regularly using chemical weapons such as phosphorus, chlorine and thermobaric and bombs the mountains of Kurdistan brutally. Especially in narrow areas, these weapons increase the effects of burning, melting and poisoning. For this reason, the enemy prefers using chemical weapons. The Turkish state, which attacks guerrilla areas incessantly, cannot advance despite the support of NATO forces. The Turkish incursion has been going on since April 17, which means that the guerrilla substantially succeeds against the occupying state. Due to the guerrilla actions, the enemy has come to a deadlock. Although the Turkish state conceals its failure, HPG and YJA Star guerrillas reveal it with the images they publish.
The Turkish state is waging a special war through fake news in its media. However, the HPG Press Centre releases documents that debunk Turkish propaganda. The US and Russia endorse the use of these chemicals by the Turkish state. It is very clear how much NATO forces support the Turkish state with the policies implemented. Their silence shows how much they have helped Erdogan. The only force that can defeat the invaders is the guerrilla. HPG and YJA Star guerrillas are resisting and fighting against all kinds of weapons with their limited means. Since the beginning of the war, the guerrilla forces have been advancing with the various tactics they have learned from the experiences of their friends. In fact, we can even say that the guerrilla has determined the fate of the war. Although the Turkish state wants to take the upper hand in this war, Öcalan and the brave fighters of these mountains are leading the war with their will and power. Therefore, we can say that the war is a guerrilla war, and the victory will be a guerrilla victory.
While one of the warring sides is fighting with its faith and will, the other is fighting with banned chemical weapons. A great war is being waged from Xakurkê to Zap, Avaşîn and Metîna. Chemical weapons are used extensively both on the ground and in battle tunnels. There is a major silence towards it, but the guerrilla forces are taking effective steps to avenge their friends who were martyred by chemical weapons. Even though the Turkish state uses chemical weapons, the spirit of victory is boosted gradually, and the guerrillas enhance the spirit of resistance. This spirit can be seen not only in the mountains, but also in the cities with the self-sacrificing actions that take inspiration from Zîlan. The resistance continues in the persons of martyr Rûken and martyr Sara, the guerrillas of YJA Star.
Furthermore, the martyrs of Bazên Zagrosê and Cenga Xabûrê Martyr Savaş Maraş Revolutionary Campaigns have become the symbols of this historic war. Because they sacrificed their lives and fought back a brutal attack. To the bitter end, they dealt heavy blows to the enemy troops with the slogans of 'Bijî Serok Apo', 'Bimirê dagirkerî', 'Bijî berxwedana guerrilla'.
