SDF released the identities of their four members martyred in the drone attack on the Til Temir Military Council communications center. Among those killed is YPJ commander Sosin Bîrhat.

The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced the identities of its members who died in a targeted attack by the Turkish state in Til Temir on Thursday. The attack by a killer drone targeted the communication center of the city's military council in northeastern Syria. Those martyred are Sosin Bîrhat, who was a member of the military councils of the SDF and the Women's Defense Units (YPJ), a commander of the Til Temir Military Council, Egîd Girkêlegê, and Til Temir Military Council fighters Rubar Hesekê and Seyfullah Ehmed.

Sosin Bîrhat was from Afrin and participated in every phase of the revolutionary process in Rojava and the liberation offensives in northern and eastern Syria. As a YPJ commander, she participated in the fight against ISIS and the Turkish occupation on the frontline.
