KCDK-E is calling for protests against the Turkish invasion of Metina
Yesterday morning, the Kurdish guerrillas (HPG) announced that the Turkish military has launched a new offensive in northern Iraq. In a press release, the HPG explained that the villages in the Metîna region have been continuously bombed since April 16. This is an attempt to occupy the Medya defense Zones (mountains of Southern Kurdistan/Northern Iraq) step by step.
The Congress of the Democratic Kurdish Society in Europe (KCDK-E) is now calling for protests against the Turkish invasion of Metina "to strengthen resistance against the policies of aggression, massacres and occupation practiced by the Turkish state in order to protect the future"
The Turkish AKP-MHP regime has shortly after the municipal elections in Turkey announced to launch further military operations in Southern Kurdistan/Northern Iraq and is also threatening Rojava/Northeastern Syria with a ground invasion.

Another example of self-selling by PDK
On the day Turkey began its invasion against Metîna, Turkish flags were hung in Erbil to mark Erdoğan's visit.
Erdoğan will visit Iraq today, and then is expected to go to Erbil. The KDP decorated the streets of Erbil with Turkish flags out of love for Erdoğan.
The president of the Turkish occupying state, Recep Tayyib Erdoğan, is visiting Iraq today, but instead of Iraq, the PDK is excited. The KDP hung the flags of the Turkish occupying state on the main streets of Erbil to welcome the fascist leader who opposes the Kurdish people, Erdoğan.
The KDP hung the flags of the fascist state of Turkey on most of Erbil's main roads, bridges, skyscrapers and roads.
The display of Turkish flags in Erbil was met with protests.

Belgian police raid Kurdish television studios
Tonight at around 02:00 Belgian police broke into the studios of the Kurdish television stations Medya Haber and Sterk Tv in Denderleeuw. Without prior notice, hundreds of police stormed the studios of Sterk TV and Medya Haber, breaking down doors and ransacking the building. Sterk TV reported that cables were cut and equipment damaged, leading to a blockade of television broadcasting.
At a time when Turkey is launching military offensives in South Kurdistan, killing Kurdish civilians in Rojava with drones and announcing the invasion of Shengal, the actions of the Belgian state are complicit in these crimes.
Sterk TV spokesperson: "This attack is a part of the genocidal concept of the Turkish occupation" & "With this attack they want to silence the voice of the Kurdish people"

Banner in solidarity with Kurdish guerrillas displayed during football match in Italy
A banner reading "Biji Guerila" (Long Live the Guerrilla) was displayed during a football match of Hic Sunt Leones team in Bologna.
The day chosen by the activists was not random as the liberation of the city from Nazism is celebrated on 21 April. The sports center is in fact named after Mauro Pizzoli, nom de guerre "Pzulein", a partisan barbarously killed by the Nazis on 29 October 1944 at the age of 20. The day was also characterized by the cowardly attack of Turkish fascist forces in the Metina region with air forces and artillery.
From the activists statement:
"Times change but ideals don't. Just as fascism doesn't change. They wear different names and clothes but retain the same ideas of murder and destruction as always. 'Biji Gerila' is, therefore, not just a banner but a message of full sharing and absolute closeness to the Kurdish partisans."

April 25: Memorial Day for the Fallen of North and East Syria
Since 2021, April 25 has been considered "Memorial Day for the Fallen of North and East Syria".
The date marks a profound turning point in the Rojava Revolution, as it was on this day in 2017 that Turkey bombed the headquarters of the YPG and YPJ on Mount Qereçox.
To date, North and East Syria has recorded more than 11,000 casualties in the fight against terror and occupation. In addition, there are well over 20,000 war wounded.
