The Media Centre of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) released a statement announcing the death of three of their female fighters as a result of a Turkish UCAV (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle) strike.

The statement released by SDF Media Centre on Saturday includes the following:

“The recalcitrant Turkish occupying State is trying to eliminate our struggle and revolution for freedom within the framework of the all-out war against our people and their presence on their land. The recalcitrant Turkish occupying State is launching brutal attacks on a daily basis with all kinds of weapons against our Democratic Nation and Coexistence Project that was achieved by the revolution of women and the sacrifices of our martyrs in North-East Syria.

The International Coalition against ISIS may have responsibility for these brutal attacks on our regions.

We will not remain silent in the face of any threat to our people and our land, and our response will be by defeating the occupation and achieving the freedom of Rojava, north and eastern Syria.

On July 22, the Turkish occupation’s drones targeted a car on the Qamishlo road, resulting in the martyrdom of our YAT commander Jiyan Tolhildan, YPJ commander Roj XabĂ»r, and our comrade Barin Botan, while they were on duty.

First of all, we extend our condolences to all our people in North-East Syria and our SDF fighters, and reiterate our promise to retaliate for the martyrs, defeating the occupation and protecting and expanding our revolution, achieved by our great leaders and our fellow martyrs.

The YAT commander Jiyan Tolhildan, whose real name is Salwa Yusuf, has been involved in organizing the ranks of the people since the first day of the Rojava Revolution. Then she participated in establishing the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), becoming the leader of the Counter-Terrorism Units (YAT), and has fought relentlessly and with great courage in all the battles to build the project of the Democratic Nation and to achieve women’s freedom in North-East Syria. The revolution grew with the struggle of the commander Jiyan. She has led liberation campaigns against the terrorist group ISIS in cooperation with the International Coalition forces.

The (YPJ) commander, Roj Khabur, whose real name is Joana Hisso, who comes from the city of Derbasia, had great enthusiasm and audacity since the very beginning of the Rojava Revolution. With a deep belief in free life, she struggled with her resistance spirit within the ranks of the YPJ on all fronts, leading the liberation campaigns against ISIS terrorism with the cooperation of the International Coalition.

Our comrade, Barin Botan, whose real name is “Ruha Bashar”, came from Afrin and grew up in a patriotic family. In her prime, when she was full of hopes of a free life, she joined the ranks of the Revolution with unprecedented enthusiasm and an irreversible decision. She fought vigorously against all authoritarian forces.

We in the SDF extend our heartfelt condolences to the families of commander Jiyan, commander Roj, and our comrade Barin. Once again, we pledge to retaliate for our martyrs. We will take revenge against the enemies of freedom and women’s revolution.

Just as commander Jiyan, commander Roj and comrade Barin, we will fight for a free future for Rojava and north and eastern Syria. We also pledge to follow their path in steady steps, and we will thwart any attack against our people, our land and our revolution. We will continue to resist all kinds of attacks until we achieve victory.”
