DALIL FORAT/ ALEPPO

Since the beginning of the attacks on the neighborhood of al-Sheikh Maksoud in Aleppo, the military point in which he is stationed is known under his name, and despite the change in the locations of battles and fronts, but he did not change his position and never abandoned it, and continues from the first day on the shift in the point from early morning until late at night. He said "We did not have the weapons. We defended the neighborhood with only a few people. At first we stopped at the checkpoints and then we got the weapons from the People Protection Units," he has nothing in the city, but did not give up his mission to protect the neighborhood and participated in the resistance. Anyone who wears military uniform does not pass from that point without greeting him. This elderly man is known among the people in the name of Abu Muhammad.

Abu Mohammed lives in al-Sheikh Maksoud neighborhood of Aleppo, a neighborhood that has witnessed a popular war against mercenary gangs, which has not yet been recorded in the pages of history. Although he is old, he is still on duty at the checkpoint and does not give up his military point. Abu Mohammed is a member of the Arab component, and he lives in the hope of returning to Afrin.

'When the mercenaries attacked, we set up this point with three people'

When the mercenaries of the Turkish occupation army attacked Syrian territory, they first went to the areas of the Kurdish people. The mercenaries centered their attacks on all areas of North Syria, and from these areas they targeted Aleppo and its surroundings. In the meantime, the regime's forces were unable to withstand these attacks. The mercenary gangs fought among themselves to strengthen their power, but the Kurdish people and their supporters preferred the behavior of the "third approach" and continued their struggle according to this approach.

Abu Muhammad, who lives in al-Sheikh Maksoud neighborhood, talked about that period. Abu Mohammed says that he and three of his comrades, with the start of the attacks on al-Sheikh Maksoud neighborhood, set up a checkpoint and began to protect and defend the neighborhood in 2013 when the mercenaries of the occupation army attacked on the whole places of Aleppo, we came here with the help of 3 people by setting up a checkpoint, but at that time we did not have the weapons. We used to sleep on the sidewalks and between the houses. At first we used simple tools available to us, we got the weapons from the People Protection Units and after that period I joined "At first, there were many people living in the neighborhood, but the number decreased after the Turkish state mercenaries' attacks, where many people were forced to displace from the neighborhood."

'Continues to resist alongside his grandson'

The checkpoint is located in an important and strategic location in al-Sheikh Maksoud neighborhood. For this reason, it is possible to say that all the people of the neighborhood know Abu Muhammad and he rotates along with one of his grandsons at the checkpoint, according to a military order, and the shift starts from early morning until late at night.'Waiting for return to Afrin'

Abu Mohammed says he lives in the great hope of returning to Afrin. He said in this regard "These forces that brought the mercenary gangs to Afrin and occupied Afrin will be defeated, and we, the indigenous owners of Afrin, will return to our land and cleanse it from the enemies,"
