"Most states rightfully decry authoritarian states who poison dissidents or use hitmen to kill their human rights critics, but when a Bayraktar drone is used to murder Kurdish women advocating gender equality in Rojava, or burn alive four Kurdish teenage girls playing volleyball at a UN school, the distance somehow excuses the illegal and deadly war crime to the international community."

Clarification regarding the recent Turkish allegations

All the allegations made by Turkish officials about the crossing of the perpetrators of the attack on the Turkish capital, Ankara, or their use of our areas are untrue repeated accusations, and come as a continuation of the cycle of false accusations that Turkey has always pursued during the recent period to divert attention from its internal problems and crises and pave the way for the crimes of ethnic cleansing and genocide against our people.
Our forces reiterate their steadfast commitment to ensuring internal and regional security.
