Kurds living in Athens, capital city of Greece, started three-day long events upon the call of People's Assembly of Greece. As part of the events that will end with a mass rally tomorrow, a vigil was launched yesterday for the freedom of Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan. Women have today taken over the vigil which is held at the central Sindagma Square across the Parliament.

A statement made by the People's Assembly of Greece said that; “This vigil is an outcome of the Kurdish women's devotion to their Leader. Tayyip Erdoğan should know that Kurdish women will be on vigil every day as the freedom of our Leader is also our freedom."

The Kurdish Popular Assembly in Greece also released a statement calling upon all Kurds to join the rally to be held in front of the Greek Parliament at 18:00 Friday evening.
