Human Rights activist Mihemed Cemîl Xelil spoke to ANHA about the inhuman practices carried out by the invading Turkish state and its mercenary allies in Afrin. 

Emphasizing that the Turkish state is carrying out racist policies in Afrin, Xelil stressed that in fact all peoples and beliefs in the region are being targeted.

Denouncing that the practices of the Turkish state are contrary to human rights and international law rules, Xelil said: "In Afrin civilians are being massacred, kidnapped and raped. These practices go against all beliefs, especially the Islamic religion”.

Stating that Turkey has no legitimate right or reason to be in Northern Syria, Xelil called on the international human rights organizations to fulfill their responsibilities and take action against the constant violations of rights.
