Two fighters of the YPJ (Women's Defence Units) shatter the 'capital' of ISIS with their laughter and songs.

Two fighters of the YPJ (Women's Defence Units) shatter the 'capital' of ISIS with their laughter and songs.

Leisurely are they walking on the streets of Raqqa, these two fighters of the YPJ. Their faces are brightened with cheeriness and calmness. Their serenity and happiness derive from two special reasons: The first one is, because they have met, after a long time, their old comrades again in the emplacements and the other reason is the fact that they have crushed the back of ISIS in Raqqa.

The fighter of the YPJ explained that because of the circumstances of the war they have not seen their comrades for a very long time, whereupon they betook themselves simply to their emplacements to glimpse a sight of them.

While recalling the moments of meeting their friends again, their faces radiate heartfelt happiness.

 

The two fighters of the YPJ are heading now to their own emplacements. One of them says: "These are the streets of Raqqa. For now we are returning to our positions. These areas here we have already liberated and there is nothing left here to do. But right now the ISIS gangs are firing with automatic rifles."

After that she added: "Right know nothing happens, our comrades are removing the enemy's land mines."

And cradling in their chest the happiness to have met their friends, they once again walk off to their comrades, approaching them laughing and singing as they radiate the joyance of crushing the ISIS gangs in Raqqa.
