Kongra Star condemned the deadly attack in Qamishlo, which resulted in the death of a mother and her son, and emphasised that: "We will stand against the attacks with the philosophy of ‘Jin, jiyan, Azadi’ until the end.”
Kongra Star, the women’s umbrella organization in North-East Syria, made a press statement in front of Mihemed Şêxo Culture and Art Centre in Qamishlo to condemn the attack in the city center earlier today, which claimed the lives of a mother and her son.
Kongra Star Spokesperson Rihan Loqo stated that their friend Xalide Mihemed Şerîf (45) and her son Hejar Ednan Silêman were martyred in the attack and said, “The aim of the attacks of the occupying Turkish state is massacre and destruction of women's gains. For this reason, it targets the pioneers of the revolution and those who came together around the philosophy of Jin Jiyan Azadî.”
Rîhan Loqo stated that Xalide Mihemed Şerîf was one of the pioneers of the society and was known for her patriotism.
Stating that this attack was carried out with the approval of international powers, Rihan Loqo also condemned the silence against the increasingly ongoing attacks. She emphasised that no one can defeat the will of free women and said, “We will stand against the attacks with the philosophy of ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ until the end.”
The statement ended with the slogans ‘Şehîd namirin’ (Martyrs are immortal) and ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ (Woman, Life, Freedom).
