The East Kurdistan Unions (YRK) released a statement about the Turkish attacks on their areas in line with the genocidal campaign waged by the Turkish state against the Kurdish people in various parts of Kurdistan.

"Alongside the war that has been going on in many parts of Kurdistan for a long time, the surveillance activities and drone attacks of the Turkish state in our region have increased. Along with the tough war against the Kurdistan Freedom Movement in Behdînan region, our regions are also the target of various air strikes. Every day, many surveillance drones fly over our areas and for a long time these surveillance activities have continued with air strikes. The enemy is targeting our areas, the vineyards and gardens in our villages and causing great damage," said the YRK statement.

On Sunday 14 July 2024, after several days of surveillance, several drones and warplanes bombed the vicinity of Nizarê village near Pênciwên (Penjwen) three times at 18:12, stated the YRK.

The statement pointed out that: "The aim of these attacks and this occupation is to destroy the gains of our people. The enemy should know that we will defend ourselves with all our strength and protect the gains of our people. In this sense, we have strong determination. Our people need to be sensitive to this situation and clearly show their stance against the dangerous invasion attacks of the Turkish state. These movements and attacks are not simple. The attacks are carried out in cooperation with the KDP with the aim of destroying the gains of the Kurdish people. Therefore, the attention and determination of our people must be at the highest level. In the coming days, we will provide more information about these attacks to our people and the public."
