🌹Today marks the 8th anniversary of the #Kobane massacre

➡️ After the liberation of Kobane in Jan. 2015, ISIS carried out a massacre on 25.6.2015, killing 252 civilians

➡️ From there, they went from house to house, killing old people, men, women & children

➡️ During the massacre infants had been killed in their beds & ISIS militants cut off the index & middle finger of an infant - the 2 fingers used to show the victory sign

➡️Among the 252 killed civilians there have been 35 children & 64 women - 3 of them being pregnan

In the last 3 months 256 families fled from Turkish occupied #GirêSpî to #AANES

➡️ In the 1st year of the occupation 100.000 out of 170.000 had fled the Turkish occupied area

👉 The #AANES has become a safe haven for people coming from Damascus-held & Turkish occupied areas

In North & East #Syria there are more than 10000 #ISIS detainees, coming from more than 60 countries

➡️ Most countries have refused to take back their citizens

➡️ In the face of the inaction of the international community, the #AANES announced to prosecute the ISIS foreigners

🗣️ Xalid Ibrahim, #AANES Foreign Relations Department, spoke about this decision to ANHA News Agency:

Turkish-backed militia man rapes girl in #Afrin

➡️ According to local sources he then fled to Jindires to seek refuge among his relatives from Ainjarah town, western #Aleppo

➡️ Yesterday, the "#Barzani Charity Foundation" opened a center in occupied Afrin

👉 #Barzani's organization is pretending to help the #Kurds, while in fact they are cooperating with the forces who massacred & displaced the Kurdish population of #Afrin

➡️ This directly supports the ethnic cleansing & "turkification" of indigenous Kurdish territories
