This is a critical time to DONATE what you can to @HeyvasorUK and help these refugees survive the winter. I don't make much money but I sent what I can and will continue to do so. Please help support Heyva Sor a Kurdistanê e.V. by donating or retweeting. https://t.co/y8l4C2Flin
While the first group of people fleeing the Turkish mercenaries in Shehba has moved towards Tebqa, many remain on route without food, water or shelter. Meanwhile the AANES is building up tents in Tabqa for people arriving.
@chitowngirl1982@Solutionwolf11@Melitaalsole I don't know what you expect to gain by playing ignorant to the fact that ISIS openly recruited women and children into their ranks, and since Al-Hol closed ISIS attacks skyrocketed in the region.
The Kurds are a fascinating people. They ardently fight for their rights, but decide to sabotage themselves the second after all their fighting actually pays off.
@mamarisha_@_R14h3bu I hope the Uzbeks get slaughtered to a man and take as many HTS dogs with them as they can. The Uzbek terrorists were responsible for many of the televised executions of captured Kurdish fighters in Tal Rifaat and Sheikh Maqsoud.
Both sides agreed on the importance of preserving security and stability in Syria and safeguarding the rights of the Kurdish people and all other components of Syrian society.

Troubling testimony from a Kurdish detainee forced to perform Islamic prayers or face beatings and electric shocks while in Syrian Government detention.
Fact check: Syrians, including POWs and civilians, have been illegally held in Turkish prisons and tried under Turkish law after capture in Syria for years now.

Lest you forget “a brazen attack” killed two journalists Cihan Bilgin and Nazım Dastan—both Turkish citizens—on December 19, 2024 near the Tishreen dam. A suspected Turkish drone struck the vehicle carrying them even though it was clearly marked PRESS. Their families have not been allowed to repatriate their remains.
@D_abdulkader KRG (namely Barzani and the KDP) accelerated Rojava's failure by placing embargoes on Rojava, and allowing groups like the KNC & ENKS to legitimize Turkish military operations against Rojava. So it wasn't their failure alone. The biggest issue in Kurdish politics is disunity.
@D_abdulkader The biggest mistakes Rojava leadership made was building a personality cult around Ocalan, thinking the Arabs would support AANES indefinitely especially after most of the country rallied around Damascus, and ignoring US officials blatantly telling them their support was ending.
This is the life of Kurds in New-Syria, ruled by Jolani.
Kurds are being hunted - mobs are attacking their cars.
The Syrian Government and its supporters keep on praising themselves for allowing Kurds to have rights - however this is the reality behind the masquerade.
It must be understood that this is not some reactionary as many like to portray it as - it’s a systematic manhunt.
Checkpoints were established in coordination with Syrian Government forces which stopped cars and questioned their ethnicity.
The Kurdish female fighters from the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), who were filmed by the Damascus regime and Turkish mercenaries as “terrorists,” are now free among their people in the city of Al-Hasakah.

"lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel"
His wife was killed in an ISIS bombing in Syria.
The guy running counterterrorism thought the real villains in the battle with ISIS were the Jews.
@iAmHaks This video doesn't show any involvement of the revolutionary youth nor does it show anyone "firing in the air" all the accounts pushing this narrative are vehemently anti-YPG/PYD. This seems like a coordinated campaign and the account you quoted directly praised Julani.
The jihadists with the new Syrian government in Damascus threw members of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), US-allied partner forces who bravely fought against ISIS, into the same prison cells as ISIS prisoners. The ISIS prisoners behaved exactly as expected, brutalized the SDF members, and had their revenge.
This was in Al-Shaddadi prison near Raqqa, where some of the most dangerous ISIS fighters were kept — those with blood on their hands.
The United States should take notice. The new Syrian government often views ISIS as friends, not foes — regardless of whether the Syrian government officially joined the US-led Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS.
Kobani remains under siege—despite the Jan. 29 agreement.
• Roads closed
• Food & humanitarian aid blocked
• 600,000 without essential supplies
• 200,000 IDPs
This violation of the agreement—and the targeting of a minority area—can no longer be ignored.
