Representatives of the Syrian Future Party went to Semalka Border Crossing on the 22nd day of the action organised by families of the martyrs who died as a result of a KDP Kurdistan Democratic Party’sambush and whose bodies were not handed over to their relatives. The Syrian Future Party condemned the attitude.
‘Despite brutal attacks, they cannot defeat the guerrillas’
The statement read by the Syrian Future Party said: “The Kurdish people have continued their struggle against persecution and pressure for decades. The Turkish state has never given up its hostile attacks and plans to expand the invasion in the region. Since April 23, the Turkish state has been carrying out brutal attacks against South Kurdistan and Medya Defense Areas. During these attacks, it has been using sophisticated military technology and chemical weapons but nevertheless, it cannot defeat the guerrillas’ resistance.”
‘Attacks are supported by the KDP’
Underlining that the Turkish state cannot launch any attack without the support of some political parties, the statement continued: “The KDP implemented many of the Turkish state’s plans in South Kurdistan. Moreover, it supported the Turkish state’s attacks against the guerrillas. The KDP not only coordinated the attacks, but also directly get involved in the attacks, and ambushed the guerrillas.”
‘Families demand bodies of their sons’
Recalling the statement released by the People’s Defense Forces (HPG) Press Center on the issue, the members of the Syrian Future Party said: “The KDP forces laid an ambush against a group of 7 guerrillas on August 28-29, and 5 guerrillas fell as martyrs. The bodies of the fallen guerrillas have not been given to their families. Therefore, mothers are holding a vigil at Semalka Border Gate demanding the bodies of their sons.”
Representatives of the Syrian Future Party called upon the KDP to stand with Kurdish people, show a national attitude and give up the collaboration with the occupiers.
Martyrs’ Families in Tirbespiye are expected to visit the action today.
