Some quick notes on the recent attacks of the Turkish Army on Rojava

Once again, the Turkish Army has been launching a big scale bombing campaign all across Rojava. For the last 5 days, critical infrastructure like power plants, water stations and oil facilities has been bombed. More than 200 civilian and military locations had been targeted.

The amount of people killed in those attacks still unclear, easily above 100, and several hundreds more of injured are in hospitals. For more specific information and data, you can follow updated reports of the damage caused by Turkish attacks on RIC channels.

This is not new. Not even a year ago the Turkish state launched the “operation Claw-sword”, bombing more than 500 locations in northern Syria. Since then (and before that) drone attacks and shelling on a regular base had been part of the low intensity warfare that never stops

Now more than ever, solidarity is needed. The world’s attention is drawn to the invasion of Ukraine and conflict in Palestine, while the attacks on Rojava and the Kurdish struggle are largely ignored. There is a clear reason for this: it doesn’t serve the interests of NATO.

Talking about NATO, there is a remarkable incident that took place few days ago: US jets took down a turkish UAV, and seems it was not a regular Bayraktar but a newly produced Anka.
This may be the first intra-NATO attacks we saw in northern Syria.

Anyway, we will continue our work.

We know we are just a drop in the sea of this revolution, but what is a sea if not a confederation of many drops?
So we will do our best to defend this revolution because, you know, every thunderstorm starts with a single rain drop!
