Today, the Armenian Social Council issued a written statement to the public, in which it affirmed that the attacks of the Turkish occupation will not dissuade the people of all components in NE Syria from the resistance of the Turkish military escalation in the region.
The text of the statement read:
We declare with our own identity that we will resist attacks on our lands. We will not take a single step back, we know the murderous Turkish state and its genocide through its history. While the Turkish state continues its attacks in line with its murderous history, we will defend the lands in which we live, and we will not leave the fields of our struggle.”
The council rejected the continuous Turkish attacks, "We do not accept the recent intensified attacks by drones against NE Syria. Three people who were in a civilian car, including the co-chair of Qamishlo canton Yusra Darwish, lost their lives as a result of an attack on June 20. It is clear that The will of all residents of Rojava was targeted by this attack to break people's resistance."
We are the victims of the genocide, who follow in the footsteps of the Armenian martyrs who chose resistance, and not those who accept surrender and betrayal. We will continue to defend the Rojava revolution and the Rojava women's revolution with all the components that live in the region.
