Kurdish women write to women worldwide: Help us!

Kurdish women who are located in northern Syria have sent a touching letter to all women worldwide following Turkey's attacks, where hundreds have died so far.

All the women and people in the world who love freedom” is the title of open letter that has been distributed to the world media.

As women from different cultures and beliefs from ancient Mesopotamian lands, we are sending our warmest greeting to you.

We urge you to join Global Action Day on October 12th to stop Turkey's war and conquest in Syria, and to overcome Fascism and Patriarchate worldwide!

“We write from the middle of the war in northeastern Syria, forced by the Turkish state on land where we are autochthon”, the letter of Turkish women follows.

We have three days to resist bombing, and we have seen mothers being targeted in their homes by the bombing as they leave the house to buy bread. We've seen the bomb uncut the leg of a seven-year-old girl, the bomb that killed her 12-year-old brother.

We are looking at how the Christian churches are being bombarded and killed by our Christian brothers and sisters, whose ancestors survived the genocide of 1915 and are now killed by the army of Erdogan's new Ottoman empire. Two years ago we saw how the Turkish state built a 620km-long wall along the border to force the division of our country and not allow refugees to enter Europe”, they say, as they call on Western countries for help, saying they themselves will continue to fight to the end.

Now, we are witnessing that Turkish state tanks, soldiers and jihadist killing groups have removed part of the wall to invade our cities and villages.

We are witnesses of the military attacks.

We are witnessing how the neighbourhoods, villages, schools, hospitals and cultural heritage of the Kurds, Ezids, Arabs, Syrians, Armenians, Chechens, Circles, Turkmens and other cultures that live here are targeted by air strikes and the fires of Thracian artillery. We are witnessing how thousands of families are forced to flee their homes to seek refuge without having a safe place to go. Furthermore, we are witnessing the new attacks of the killing commands of I SIS in cities like Raqqa, who was liberated from the Islamic State terror regime two years ago with the joint war of our people. Once again, we are witnessing the Turkish military joint attacks and their jihadist mercenaries against Serêkan, Girêsip and Kobaan. These are just some of the incidents we've faced since Erdogan declared the war on October 9th, 2019.

As women, we are determined to fight until we gain the victory of peace, freedom and justice. To achieve our goal, we rely on international solidarity and the common struggle of women and all people who love freedom. “-ends the touching letter of the wife kude, writes window.net
