On the occasion of the 3rd anniversary of the Shengal genocide of 3 August 2014, European Kurdish Democratic Societies Congress (KCDK-E) issued a written statement concerning the marches and rallies planned for tomorrow.

The statement called for recognition of an independent status for Shengal and support for Shengal's Self-Defense forces established for the protection of the Êzidî people.

In that respect, KCDK-E invited everyone to attend the rallies to be held tomorrow, and called for the recognition of the brutal mass killing of Êzidîs as a genocide.
