A demonstration was held in the Swedish city of Borlänge in protest at the fascist attacks of the Turkish state. The crowd denounced the political coup, repression and arrest of the Kurdish people and massacres committed by the Turkish state in three parts of Kurdistan.

Speakers called on the Kurds to take to the streets and expose the brutality of the Turkish regime, and paid tribute to PKK Central Committee member Kasım Engin who lost his life in an air raid of the Turkish army in southern Kurdistan, northern Iraq.

Demonstrators pledged loyalty to martyrs and vowed to continue the struggle to carry their flag to victory. They also remembered 16-year-old Kurdish woman from Afrin who was murdered by jihadist mercenaries under the command of NATO partner Turkey.
