Both the terror of state forces and the resistance of the people continue in Silvan district of Amed.

Deputy co-mayor of Silvan, Zuhal Tekiner, who talked to the district governor was answered that “We have started a cleansing operation”. She stated that Turkish state forces started to attack neighborhoods with tanks and panzers upon the imposition of a curfew.

Tekiner informed that two people have just been been wounded in their area, including a 12-year-old child, Barış Çakış, who has been shot in the foot but couldn't be taken to hospital yet as snipers have also targeted those who went to the scene to carry him into an ambulance in the area.

Tekiner gave the following information regarding the current situation in the town; "Thousands of special operation police have been trying to enter Tekel neighborhood from Mescit neighborhood since yesterday. They are opening fire on every corner of the neighborhood with mortars and heavy weapons. We are facing a threat of imminent massacre as thousands of people in the town are suffering from violence and heavy attacks by special operation teams. We have been able to verify the death toll as 2 but some reports say 4 people have lost their lives and over 20 people have been wounded so far."

Remarking that soldiers on the other hand hindered the entry of hundreds of people coming from Amed and Batman, Tekiner said only DBP Co-President Kamuran Yüksek, HDP Amed deputies Nursel Aydoğan and Sibel Yiğitalp have been allowed access into the town where state forces continue shooting at every single person they see.
