Kongra Star said in a statement that Qamishlo canton co-chair Yusra Darwish and her deputy, Liman Shweish, who were killed by the Turkish state, worked for their people until the last moment.
Qamishlo canton co-chair Yusra Darwish, her deputy Liman Şhweishş and their driver Fırat Tûma were killed on Tuesday in the attack carried out by a Turkish state drone that hit the vehicle in which they were traveling on the Tirbespiyê-Qamishlo road. Canton co-chair Gabi Şemun was also injured in the same attack.
North and East Syria Kongra Star Coordination issued a statement condemning the attack.
The statement said: "The invading Turkish state's attacks against Northern and Eastern Syria continue. The Turkish state's hostility towards the people of the region does not cease. It targets civilians in its attacks."
The statement continued: "We all know that the Turkish state is committing crimes against humanity and is anti-democratic and misogynistic. This fascist state has no tolerance for a democratic order led by women. The invading Turkish state prefers dark forces like ISIS instead of the democratic system."
The statement underlined that Tuesday’s attack "coincided with the meeting in Astana. This attack was the result of cooperation between the Turkish state and Russia. Increasing attacks after the elections is Erdoğan's policy. Unfortunately, even though these attacks are being carried out in front of the whole world, the UN, the European Union, the International Coalition, the human rights institutions remain silent. The people of the region, who have defended themselves against the oppression and persecution of ISIS for years, will also defend themselves against the attacks of the Turkish invasion."
Kongra Star expressed its "condolences to the family and relatives of the three martyrs, and wish our injured friend a speedy recovery.
We emphasize once again that the attacks carried out by the fascist and invading Turkish state are mostly directed at women.
Our comrades Leman and Yusra Derweş have served their country and society at the leadership and management levels for many years. They were always trying to help women reach their free identities and stand on their own feet. These friends have made great efforts in social, educational and academic fields and have left their mark with their work.
We strongly condemn this brutal attack and we call on all women and society to stand up for the martyrs and the values of the revolution."
