The human shield action launched by the people of Serekaniye in the border region against the Turkish state’s threats to invade North and East Syria continues on day 4.

Hundreds of Serekaniye residents have paid a solidarity visit to the activists following their visits to the cemeteries of martyrs on occasion of the Feast of Sacrifice.

Speaking here, women’s movement Kongreya Star Coordination member Foza Yusif wished a happy Eid to the peoples of North and East Syria. Yusif also commended the popular resistance against Turkey’s threats.

Remarking that only the people of North and East Syria can protect the region, Yusif said the Turkish state is carrying out any method possible to inflict a blow on the democratic project implemented in North and East Syria. She continued; “With their self-strength and will, our people can protect themselves and come up with a solution to their problems.”

Yusif pointed out that they favor dialogue for a political solution to the Syrian crisis, adding; “If the Turkish state chooses war, we will defend our lands.”
