Shengal genocide condemned in Berlin

Kurdish people living in German city Berlin took to the streets to condemn the ISIS’ genocide against Êzidîs in Shengal three years ago.

On occasion of the 3rd anniversary of the Shengal genocide perpetrated by ISIS and accomplice forces on 3 August 2014, Kurdish people living in German capital city Berlin followed the call of Centre of Êzidî Associations Union and Dersim Freedom Initiative and gathered yesterday in front of the city hall in Alexander Platz Rote Square, joined by representatives of many organisations.

Throughout the march of two kilometres until the Brandenburger Tor, the demonstrators chanted slogans such as "Long live the resistance of the Kurdish people", "Long live the resistance of Shengal", "Long live leader Apo" and "Long live Kurdistan".

After the mass reached their destination, speeches were made in condemnation of the terror of ISIS and complicity of the KDP in the 73rd massacre decree by handing over Shengal to ISIS.

At the Brandenburger Tor, the German police took three Kurds into custody under the pretext of the songs and slogans they chanted. After the mass showed reaction to the detainments and stood firm in front of the Brandenburger Tor, the detained persons were let free and the demonstration ended.
