Press Release

We greet with love and respect our patriotic people who filled the squares and celebrated Newroz with great enthusiasm, demanding the physical freedom of Rêber Apo.

We state that we will continue our struggle more resolutely with the strength and morale we receive from our people. While the rulers of the Turkish state argued that they were celebrating Newroz as a festival of brotherhood and spring, the invading Turkish army continued its bombardments against the mountains of Kurdistan during the Newroz. These attacks did not cause any harm to our guerrilla forces who took all precautions effectively. The occupying Turkish state, which claims to celebrate spring, has destroyed the beautiful nature by carrying out bombardments 712 times from the air and land.

The details of the attacks carried out by the occupying Turkish army against our guerrilla forces are as follows:
