Opinion leaders, intellectuals and political parties have organised a demonstration in the district of Dirbêsiyê in Hesekê Canton to protest against the increasingly ongoing attacks of the Turkish state.

During the demonstration at the Martyrs’ Square, Dirbêsiyê Opinion Leaders Committee read a press statement which described Turkey’s attacks against Ain Issa in particular and North-East Syria in general as “terror”.

The statement underlined that; “The people of North-East Syria want no war but peace. We call on everyone who stands for humanity to stand against the attacks of the Turkish state.”

“We announce our support for the SDF (Syrian Democratic Forces) that have liberated our lands. We have full trust in our military forces,” said the statement.

The demonstration was concluded with the slogans “Bijî berxwedana QSD” (Long live the SDF resistance) and “Şehîd Namirin” (Martyrs are immortal).
