Women in Tabqa Canton protest against isolation
Young women and women in the Tabqa Canton organized a protest march against the total isolation imposed on leader Abdullah Ocalan, as part of the global campaign (Freedom for Leader Abdullah Ocalan, Solution to the Kurdish Issue). They pledged to increase their struggle until the physical freedom of the leader is achieved.
Dozens of young women and women, along with members of the Zenobia Women's Council and representatives from the Autonomous Administration of the Tabqa Canton and its affiliated bodies and councils, the Syrian Future Party, and the Internal Security Forces - Women, participated in the march condemning the isolation of leader Abdullah Ocalan. The march was organized by the Young Women’s Union across the Tabqa, Raqqa, Manbij, and Deir ez-Zor Cantons.
The march began from the first neighborhood in the city of Tabqa. Participants carried yellow flags bearing pictures of leader Abdullah Ocalan and a banner that read, "With the Young Women's Initiative (Women, Life, Freedom), we will ensure the physical freedom of Leader Apo."
Amid chants of "No life without the leader" and "Down with Turkish fascism," the march reached the Democratic Students Union center in the second neighborhood of Tabqa, where the participants observed a moment of silence in honor of the martyrs.
Following this, Bushra al-Nayef, co-chair of the Youth and Sports Office in the Raqqa region, delivered a speech on behalf of the Young Women’s Union. She stated:
"As the Young Women’s Union in the liberated Cantons, we stand today in the city of Tabqa to demand the physical freedom of leader Abdullah Ocalan and support the global campaign under the slogan (Freedom for Leader Abdullah Ocalan, Solution to the Kurdish Issue) which has been joined by countries around the world; because the leader’s thoughts and philosophy have spread across the globe."
Bushra added, "The thoughts of leader Abdullah Ocalan are the only ones that have been able to liberate all oppressed peoples and those yearning for freedom from oppression and slavery, especially women, who have demonstrated their role by adhering to the leader’s philosophy."
She confirmed that women in Deir ez-Zor, Tabqa, Raqqa, and Manbij continue their struggle until leader Abdullah Ocalan's physical freedom is achieved, and expressed support from herself and all women for the resistance of the Free Women's Units (YPJ) and the People’s Defense Forces (HPG) against the attacks of the Turkish occupation state.
Bushra renewed, on behalf of the Young Women’s Union, the commitment to continue the struggle until the physical freedom of the leader is achieved.
