NEW: Turkey detains nurse over hair-braiding video in support of SDF

Authorities say the nurse’s social media post amounted to terror propaganda, while critics argue that her symbolic protest falls under freedom of expression amid tensions over Syria. https://t.co/JYo9lPAefd

🔴 Kobani'de 4 çocuk donarak yaşamını yitirdi

Reuters confirming Drop Site’s earlier reporting that Israel and the U.S. have Syria the green light to launch an offensive on the Kurdish-led SDF.

Pay attention: When Syrian forces were attacking Alawite and Druze clans, pro-Israel accounts here made it a global story. Today, with Israel approving the attack, they are dead silent. None of their influencers are saying a word. That level of cynicism is not surprising yet somehow still shocking.

#ISIS prisoners are reportedly seen out on the streets in #Syria, in a video circulating online, as voices from a passing car chant “Allahu Akbar,” calling them Islamic State members.

The footage emerges amid attacks by Syrian extremist groups on Kurdish forces who had been detaining ISIS prisoners, raising fresh concerns about prison security and the risk of ISIS regrouping.

MKM sanatçıları:

“Kürt halkı yangının orta yerinde kazanımlarını canı pahasına savunuyor. Yaşananlar katliam pratiğidir. Sessizlik ise suça ortak olmaktır.”

“Rojava halkları kuşatma altındadır. Yalnızca Kürtler değil, Suriye’de yaşayan tüm halklar tehdit altındadır.”

[Nadine Maenza @nadinemaenza]

Alarming to see a religious directive from Syria’s Ministry of Endowments (Awqaf) calling for celebration of violence—especially citing “Anfal,” a term linked to Saddam Hussein’s genocidal campaign against Kurds in Iraq.
