Hundreds of people in London pay tribute to martyrs of Paris

Hundreds of people gathered in London to pay tribute to the martyrs of Paris and said: "Our revenge will be with the women's revolution."

Hundreds of people gathered in front of Wood Green Library to attend the march organized by the British Union of Democratic Forces and London Women's Solidarity and Kurdish People's Assemblies, to pay tribute to the martyrs of Paris, Sakine Cansız, Fidan Doğan and Leyla Şaylemez, who were murdered on 9 January 2013 and Emine Kara, Mir Perwer and Abdurrahman Kızıl, who were murdered on 23 December 2022.

The crowd carrying banners reading “Tolhildana me wê Şoreşa jinê be” (Our revenge will be through the women's revolution), often chanted the slogans “Jin jiyan azadi”, “Martyr namiri”, “Terrorist Turkey”, “Down with fascism”.

Before the march, a minute's silence was held in memory of the martyrs of the revolution.

Speeches were made here on behalf of DGB, Kurdish People's Assembly, Women's Solidarity and international groups. The speakers condemned the Paris Massacres and protested France's failure to expose the truth. While emphasizing that both massacres were carried out by the Turkish state, activists said that the struggle would continue until those responsible for the killings are brought to justice.
