The guerrillas continue their resistance against the Turkish invasion of Southern Kurdistan unabated. According to HPG information, another eight soldiers of the Turkish army have been killed in guerrilla actions.
In its daily statement about the ongoing war in Kurdistan, the Press Centre of the People's Defence Forces (HPG) reported that guerrillas continue their resistance against the Turkish invasion in Southern Kurdistan unabated.
"The efforts of the fascist Turkish army to break the resistance of our forces by using banned bombs and chemical weapons are fruitless. In the actions carried out by our forces, eight occupants have been punished." According to HPG data, the Turkish occupation forces used high impact explosives, chemical weapons and pepper gas against guerrilla positions twenty times. Fighter jets carried out eleven airstrikes and dozens of other attacks were carried out by howitzers.
The details provided by HPG are as follows:
