The General Command of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) warned<https://sdf-press.com/en/2024/12/statement-of-our-sdf-general-command-regarding-the-attacks-of-the-turkish-occupation-and-its-mercenaries-on-kobani/> on Tuesday of an impending Turkish-led invasion targeting Kobani (Kobanê<https://medyanews.net/world-kobane-day-remembering-battle-against-isis-siege/>), a city synonymous with its pivotal resistance against ISIS nearly a decade ago. The SDF reaffirmed its readiness to defend the city, drawing parallels between the ongoing threats and the global support Kobani received during the battle against ISIS in 2014. In their statement, the SDF highlighted Turkey’s intensified military presence in the region, stating, “A massive presence of Turkish military and Turkish-backed mercenaries is stationed around Kobani, Qara Qozaq Bridge, and Tishreen Dam<https://medyanews.net/ypg-ypj-fighters-repel-turkish-backed-militias-in-fierce-resistance-near-tishreen-dam-euphrates-basin/>, threatening an invasion.” They accused Turkey of using similar tactics to its support for ISIS in the past, framing any new attack as an attempt to undermine the region’s stability. The statement called for public mobilisation, urging all communities to participate in defending Kobani and strengthening self-defence efforts. “As much as our people can defend the streets and neighbourhoods in any city, they will be of help to the self-defence forces,” the SDF said, emphasising collective resistance. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
