People of Tabqa bid farewell to Edhem El Hesen (Watan), a fighter of the Idlib Revolutionaries Brigade under the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) umbrella.

The funeral procession from the Tabqa Watanî Hospital to the Tabqa Cemetery of Martyrs was joined by hundreds of people.

The funeral began with a military ceremony of the SDF fighters and continued with speeches by the Legislative Assembly Deputy Co-chair Huda Awan on behalf of the Tabqa Democratic Civil Administration, the Council of Martyrs’ Families member Foza Mihemed and Idlib Revolutionaries Brigade Commander Mehmûd Ebû Xalid.

Speakers remembered the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of Syrian lands and promised to follow in the footsteps of martyrs until the Syrian lands are cleared from the Turkish state and mercenaries.

Speakers highlighted the violations and crimes committed by Turkish forces and allied gangs against the people of North and East Syria, which has resulted in the displacement of the local people from their homes and lands.

Following the speeches, the SDF martyr was laid to rest.
