The regions of NE Syria (NES) are under constant Turkish attacks, specifically the area extending from Ain Issa to Tal Tamr.

Despite the agreement with a Russian guarantor to stop the hostilities, the Turkish occupation attacks the NES regions continue on a daily basis, and Russia is criticized for renouncing its role as a guarantor state.

In this regard, member of the SDC Presidency Council, Hamo said: "The attacks are not new. The Turkish state has been working, since the beginning of the Syrian crisis, to harm democracy that threatens Turkish national security, according to Erdogan's vision."

Hamo stated that the Turkish attacks aimed at "Emptying the region of the indigenous population."

She pointed to Turkish plans to control "the international highway (M4) That extends to Idlib."

Member of the Presidency criticized Russia, saying, "The direct Turkish bombing of civilians with the Russian guarantor's commitment to silence, heralds a Russian acceptance of killing civilians," and she held Russia "responsible for the crimes and violations against civilians. "

She added, "We do not count on Russian protection when we recall the tragedy of Afrin; in a time of distress they withdrew."

She called on Russia to assume its "responsibilities before millions of Syrians to prevent Turkish attacks on Syrian territory."

And she warned of the Turkish colonial plans: “In the event of complacency with the Turkish occupation army, its attacks will extend to some Iraqi areas, such as Mosul, Kirkuk and Şengal, as well as the regions of northeast Syria with flimsy historical pretexts.” She added: “The Turkish occupation army is also taking advantage of the US presidential transition period to increase the attacks on NE Syria. "

She stressed the need for the people of northeast Syria to strengthen the defense system to deter Turkey. , Which comes within the framework of getting rid of the internal pressure of the Turkish opposition or finding an outlet to escape from crises. "

Fahima Hamo, a member of the Presidency Council of the Syrian Democratic Council, concluded her speech by saying: "One of the goals of our project is to end all occupations on Syrian lands, especially the Turkish occupation.
