Women in Rubar Refugee Camp condemn Turkey’s attacks

Women living in the Rubar Refugee Camp, which has been the target of attacks of the Turkish state and its gangs many times before, have shown their reaction against the Turkish invasion and stated that they will not let the Turkish state enter Rojava.

The Turkish state and gangs affiliated to it, which have occupied the Azaz city, are constantly bombarding the Shehba and Efrîn cantons.

Thursday night the gangs of the occupying Turkish state launched attacks on the surroundings of the Rubar Refugee Camp and the villages Xalta, Cîbirê and Basil that are connected to the Sherawa district of Efrîn.

The Turkish state fired about 30 missiles around the camp, causing immense damage to the fields and tents of the refugees.

A woman called Dilşad Dawud said about those shelling: "These attacks are directed at the Rubar Refugee Camp. Yesterday about 30 missiles were shot around the camp. We are refugees from the village of Basil."

"WE WILL RESIST"

Dilşan Dawud pointed out that it was not the first time that the Turkish state shelled the refugee camp, but stressed that they will never fear their bombs, neither will they allow them to enter their soil, saying: "Because we have a strong will, we will always keep on resisting".

A woman with the name Suad Xelil condemned the bombardments by the Turkish state and stated: "We fled to the Efrîn canton a short while ago. But the Turkish state is attacking the refugees nonetheless. Every day we wake up with the sound of the bombardment by the Turkish gangs."

"THE PEOPLE OF SHEHBA CANNOT SLEEP DUE TO THE SOUND OF THE SHELLINGS"

Suad added: "The Turkish state has launched attacks on us several times now. Yesterday they shot missiles around the Rubar camp. We could not sleep anymore due to the sound of the Turkish state's shelling". Suad called on the the international public opinion and states to be attentive on this issue.

"WHERE SHALL WE FLEE THIS TIME?"

A woman called Mune Abdulrehim said: "We fled from the bombs to the Efrîn Canton to save our children from the sound of the explosions. But the occupying Turkish state is launching attacks on the Rubar Refugee Camp, where shall we flee this time?"

Mune continued saying: "Enough for fascist Erdoğan. He wants to invade our land. But Erdoğan can achieve this only in his dreams."

Another woman with the name Hiyem stated that: "This is now the fourth time that the fascist Turkish state bombarded the Rubar Refugee Camp and its surroundings. Each time they attack, our children get very frightened. When my children and my daughter-in-law hear the explosions they literally fall ill. But no matter how much the Turkish state attacks, the peoples' unity will frustrate those attacks."
