فلول داعش يحرقون ممتلكات المهجرين الكرد في تل ابيض / گري سبي.

إنها عقلية الغنيمة التي تحاول تحويل الاحتلال إلى أمر واقع، والتهجير إلى وسيلة للاستيلاء، والترهيب إلى أداة لإسكات أصحاب الأرض.

لكن الأرض ليست غنيمة، وممتلكات المهجّرين ليست مكافأة لمن استولى عليها من خلال دبابات الاحتلال، وغياب أصحابها القسري لا يمنح أحداً حق مصادرتها أو التصرف بها.

إن هذه الاعتداءات ليست منفصلة عن احتلال تل أبيض وسريه كانيه عام 2019 وتهجير سكانها الكرد، بل تمثّل استمراراً لنهج يهدف إلى تثبيت واقع فرضته الإرهاب والاحتلال على حساب أصحاب الأرض وحقوقهم.

إن المسؤولية لا تقع على من ينفّذ هذه الاعتداءات الترهيبية فحسب، بل تستوجب أيضاً مساءلة الجهات التي تدعمها أو تتغاضى عنها، والتحقيق في دور كل من يساهم في تكريس هذا الواقع.

Kurdish forces and Syrian authorities have issued contradictory remarks in recent days, with Damascus claiming the Kurdish-led Anti-Terror Units (YAT) have disbanded, while the force maintains that it continues security activity in the region amid an “ongoing integration process.”

Iraq’s parliament on Thursday voted to appoint Laith al-Khazali, the US-designated senior leader of Asaib Ahl al-Haq, as one of the deputies to PM Zaidi, despite US’ repeated rejection of the appointment of Iran-linked individuals in the new government

In Northeast Syria, the sacrifices made over the past decade by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the Global Coalition in the fight against ISIS and extremism risk being squandered amid declining international engagement and a shift in the Coalition’s priorities.

The scenes circulating today from Hasakah, where a demonstration took place under the protection of the central security forces of the Damascus government, evoke disturbing memories of the ISIS era and raise serious concerns about the resurgence of extremism.

The growing threats facing Kurds, Christians, and other communities across the region demand urgent attention from international organizations and decisive action before civilians once again pay the price of international neglect.

What is happening in Northeast Syria warrants serious international scrutiny. A decade of sacrifices in the fight against ISIS must not be allowed to go to waste, nor should the security of Kurds, Christians, and other communities be left at the mercy of rising extremism and shifting international interests.

In Syria, which has yet to rid itself of the legacy of Ba’athist racism, and here we are in the 21st century, all it takes is a Kurdish girl speaking her mother tongue for a bestial instinct, like that of a stray dog that bites, to awaken in the heirs of that mentality. A teacher bites a Kurdish student simply because she spoke Kurdish. This is what racism looks like when it descends from an ideology into an act of brutality, and when hatred of a language is turned into an attack on a child.

And how much we Kurds still need to struggle to change this mentality - a mentality that has become a scourge upon both us and them; one that does not only harm Kurds, but poisons society as a whole and reproduces hatred and discrimination from one generation to the next.

@ScharoBajalan I think joining other Rojhelati parties was a very smart decision they made, cause they would otherwise be isolated with all their ideology-aligned groups dissolving

After more than five years, my mission leading the Media Center of the Syrian Democratic Forces comes to an end, as the process of the SDF integrating into the Syrian Army moves forward.
These years were not merely a mission or a position. They were one of the most dangerous and challenging periods of my life. It was a time when battles followed one another, threats constantly evolved, and the responsibility of conveying what was happening on the ground to the world was one that allowed no room for error.
Throughout these years, I experienced the details of battles alongside my comrades, moment by moment. I managed statements, media coverage, and official briefings, and followed the documentation of field operations through images, footage, and words. Behind every statement there was a battle; behind every photograph there was a story; and behind every scene there were names, faces, and comrades who left an imprint that the passage of time cannot erase.
I am proud of everything we accomplished at the Media Center, not simply because it was media work, but because we sought to preserve the memory of an entire period and to document what fighters, civilians, and comrades experienced on the ground, with all the victories and sacrifices those years carried.
Above all, I am proud of my fallen comrades who lost their lives while carrying out their duties, and of all those who continue on their path today. I am also proud of everyone who worked at the Center before me — the administrators and staff whose efforts helped build its experience and establish its presence. What we accomplished did not begin with us, and it will not end with the departure of any one of us.
Many faces passed before our cameras. Some of them are still with us, while others have become part of our collective memory. We preserved their photographs, voices, and moments. Perhaps the true value of those images lies in the fact that, at the time they were captured, we did not know that some of them would one day become the final photograph of a comrade who had passed away.
My mission leading the Media Center is coming to an end, but this does not mean that I will stop striving or abandon the values and causes I have believed in throughout these years. Responsibilities and positions may change, but conviction does not. I will continue my path in whatever way I can, and I will remain alongside my comrades, faithful to everyone who shared these years with me and to everyone who sacrificed and gave their life along this path.
Some missions come to an end, but what we believe in and strive for continues.
