🚨 Til Rifat, one of the places hit by the #earthquake, was being shelled by Turkish artillery

➡️ The earthquake caused buildings to collapse & forced people to stay outside

➡️ Shortly after the earthquake #Turkey & its allied mercenaries shelled the area with heavy weapons


Til Rifat is a small region from strategic importance in the northern #Aleppo governorate.

➡️ In 2016 #SDF member group Jabhat al-Akrad liberated the area from turkish-backed mercenaries

➡️ In one week from today, February 15 marks the anniversary of the international conspiracy in which Abdullah Öcalan was abducted, handed over to the Turkish state, and consequently put in prison, where he has been held in solitary confinement until today.

➡️ Until 15/02, we will inform you with a post every day about how Abdullah Öcalan influenced us as YPJ and our philosophy.

About 43 years ago, Abdullah Öcalan fled to Syria to protect the movement for a free #Kurdistan from the imminent military coup in Turkey, which took place on September 12, 1980.

➡️ 32 years later, in the Kurdish areas in #Syria, the #Rojava Revolution began

➡️ The self-defence units #YPJ/#YPG liberated these areas from Assad and later from #ISIS

➡️ This region became what we now know as the Autonomous Administration of North and East #Syria

🌹#YPJ General Command on the martyrdom of Nûpel Têkoşer Dêrik

📢 "Our friend (...) had been wounded in a Turkish shelling on #AynIssa on the 18.1.23. Despite fighting hard to survive her injuries she could not be saved & lost her life on the 7.2.23."

➡️ The people of Kobane & Afrin are known for their connection to their land and their attachment to the values of the revolution. These are rooted in the works of Abdullah Öcalan and the years that he spent there. In his time there, he lived and learnt together with the people.

➡️ With the liberation of Kobane, YPJ became known around the world for the fighting women’s self-defence units that defeated Daesh.

➡️ During his time in #Syria, Abdullah Öcalan developed new socialist ideas, far from Soviet state #socialism

➡️ A new way of thinking, grounded on women's liberation & #confederalism emerged

➡️ In 2013 #YPJ were founded on these principles

➡️ In the 80s Öcalan begins to deeply analyse the history & people of #Kurdistan

➡️ He researched & interpreted the history of Kurdish women & those around the world

➡️ #YPJ is based on these scientific findings. A strong foundation needs to have a solid theoretical structure
