On 9 January 2013, Sakine Cansız, one of the founders of the PKK, Fidan Doğan, the KNK representative in Paris, and Leyla Şaylemez, a member of the youth movement, were murdered by the Turkish intelligence service MIT in Paris. On the tenth anniversary of this massacre, another massacre was carried out on 23 December 2022, claiming the lives of Emine Kara (Evîn Goyî), member of the Executive Council of the KCK, Mîr Perwer (Mehmet Şirin Aydın) from the Kurdish cultural movement and long-time activist Abdurrahman Kızıl in front of the Ahmet Kaya Cultural Center in the French capital. Kurds and their companions are taking to the streets in Paris today to protest against the two massacres and the ongoing impunity.

The anger of the Kurds and their friends in the area is great because the French state, as well as the French justice and security institutions, have not yet shed light on the massacre. In order to shout for justice and truth, people gathered at Paris du Nord Square from 05.00 in the morning to show their anger at the French government's failure to shed light on the massacre, calling it a "state secret".

The destination of the march will be the historical Republique Square. Thousands of Kurds and their friends, including poets, writers, politicians, intellectuals, academics, artists, musicians, are partaking in the march, which will be followed by a rally to host the following speakers:

1. Xanê Akdoğan and Şahin Polat on behalf of TJK-F and CDK-F
