The Human Rights Organization in Afrin announced the continuation of the crimes of the Turkish army and the groups it supports against women in Afrin, and that war crimes have continued in Afrin without interruption since the first day of its occupation.

 2- Do you have a plan to block the way to the killing of women and inhumane crimes in Afrin?

 3- Are you taking any action to take back the women and girls who have been kidnapped by armed groups?

 4- Is there an effective investigation into the crimes committed against women and the war crimes that have been going on for three years and mentioned in international reports?  Have you taken any legal steps against those responsible?  If you do not take any step, what is the reason for that?  Will any actions be taken?
