HPG announces identities of 5 YJA Star guerrillas martyred in Besta

The HPG announced the identities of the 5 YJA Star guerrillas who fell as martyrs in Besta.

The HPG Press Center published the names of the 5 female guerrillas who fell as martyrs in Besta. The statement said: “The invading Turkish army launched an operation in the Besta area of Botan on 21 January with the support of the contras. Our YJA Star forces, which took action to deal a blow to the enemy, took the invaders and the informers working with them under control, and on 22 January they targeted an informer called Nimet Encü and killed him. The cowardly enemy and fierce counterattacks, who could not afford to fight hand-to-hand with our YJA Star forces, heavily bombarded the area where our comrades were. In this bombardment that lasted for hours, two of our comrades fell as martyrs. Our forces hit the enemy force under control, killing 2 soldiers and wounding one high-ranking soldier. Our four comrades fought heroically against the invaders on 22 and 23 January, showing an epic resistance with the few means at their disposal. Eventually, they marched to martyrdom in order not to fall into the hands of the enemy alive.”
