The house where Kurdish people’s leader Abdullah Öcalan stayed for a while in the village of Elpelorê in Kobanê after he crossed from North Kurdistan into Rojava in 1979 was attacked by air.

Local sources said that the Turkish state carried out the attack with unmanned reconnaissance planes and material damage occurred in the house.

In 1979, Abdullah Öcalan stayed there for a while after crossing the border from Urfa to Kobanê in the summer. Since 2016, the birthday of the Kurdish leader has been celebrated by the people of Kobanê in Elpelûre.
