Youth of Gire Spi: We reject Turkish occupation under pretext of establishing safe area

Hundreds of Gire Spi youths and members of the Syrian Revolutionary Youth Movement have arrived in the border town of Gire Spi with Turkey, expressing their firm rejection of the Turkish occupation.

This comes amid threats by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Turkish officials to occupy northern and eastern Syria, and to impose occupation scenarios such as the safe area.

The youths started their demonstration at the Ein Arous junction in the town of Gire Spi, heading towards the human shields tent where hundreds of people stand as human shields in front of the Turkish occupation on the border.

During the demonstration, the youth carried banners reading "No to the Turkish occupation of Syrian territory, we reject any aggression trying to divide Syria." The youth also issued slogans rejecting the Turkish occupation "under the pretext of establishing a safe area."

The youth will participate in standing as human shields in front of an occupation with the people in the tent of human shields.
