The Defence Forces of Eastern Kurdistan (YRK) Command has published the names of three fighters who were martyred by Turkish drone attacks on Mount Asos in the Iraq-Iran border region on 29 October 2022.

The YRK statement on Sunday said: "The attacks on our forces are intensifying at a time when the region is in turmoil, the revolutionary uprising in Eastern Kurdistan and Iran is flaring up more and more, the rights of the Kurdish people are being discussed worldwide and our movement gives hope to all rebellious and revolutionary people. The occupants see their end coming and increase their aggression. Since the beginning of the 'Jin, Jiyan, Azadî' [Woman, Life, Freedom] revolution, the attacks on our forces and especially the air attacks of the Turkish state have been intensified. The preparation and sacrifice of our forces prevent the enemy from achieving its goals. For a heavy toll paid by us, the enemy's success on this front could be prevented. There is no question that our struggle will continue until the defeat of the enemy and our people will win. In the enemy attacks on 29 October 2022 at Mount Asos, our companions Dilovan, Bager and Hogir fell as martyrs. We have already published the identities of two other martyrs. Now we are releasing the details of the identities of these three martyrs."

The YRK offered their condolences to the families of the martyrs, the people of Kurdistan and humanity, stating: "They were fighters on the path of humanity and freedom and selflessly advanced the revolution. We are determined to continue the struggle of these sacrificial revolutionaries for all humanity. The martyrs live on in our minds and hearts. Long live the liberation struggle of the peoples of Kurdistan and the entire region."
