Member of Kongra Star Coordination,Hadia Yousef spoke to Hawar News about violations of the Turkish occupation against the people of the northern and eastern regions of Syria, especially women in the occupied areas.

′ Woman preserved the Kurdish culture ′
Yousef said that the Kurdish people have been subjected throughout history to oppression, killing and occupation, but their culture has not died out, thanks to the woman who preserved the Kurdish culture and literature "This is what Turkey and mercenaries intend to eliminate in Afrin ."

She noted that when Afrin was attacked, the geography was not only targeted, "not only did they kill and displace civilians, but rather they wanted to exterminate the Kurdish community in Afrin, the Kurdish culture, language, and democratic system that prevailed and target the antiquities of thousands of years."
She emphasized that the people resist these policies "but in exchange, against the occupiers, there is fierce resistance by the people of Afrin, this is what made Turkey and mercenaries change their policy towards the people many times in order to achieve their goals, as it imposed the Turkish language on the one hand and used violence on the other hand, and the elderly who carried in their memories the history of the region were not safe from the practices of the occupation, hundreds were kidnapped, tortured and video footage sent to their families in order to pay the ransom to rid their elderly from the hand of those brutalities, and many of them were killed. " .

′ The violations are revenge of woman ′

She noted that these violations are revenge on women "Women of the Kurdistan Freedom Movement who have resisted Turkey in the past decades and YPJ's women who resisted ISIS mercenaries, were revenged by targeting Afrin women. Recently, crimes against women increased, and they were killed and raped Kidnapping and arrest, murdering the minor, Malak Nabih is an example for this.

 The detention camps of mercenaries in Kilis, Izzaz, Afrin and Al-Rai are full of women. This is all because women are the guardians of the Kurdish culture since the dawn of time until now, despite all the policies of denial against the Kurdish people, they preserved it ".

She called on all the women of the world to rise up for the women of Afrin, "We want our voice to reach all the organizations that support women and all the women of the world. They should know that Afrin women are subjected to violations, they must act and demonstrate for them."

Yousef denounced Turkey's practices in building the divided concrete wall for Syria, and condemned the silence of the Syrian government. From Syria, you will be able to retain those territories that were cut off, and we condemn these actions, and denounce the silence of the Syrian government regarding these practices. "
