Cizre Democratic People's Assembly has called on the people of Botan region to mount total resistance against the 'deliberate policies of massacre'.

The Democratic People's Assembly of Şırnak's Cizre district held an emergency meeting after the attacks by Turkish state forces in Nur neighborhood yesterday left four people dead, who included two children, one of them aged 7.

The Assembly called upon the people of Botan, the southeast region of Turkey, to the fronts of self-defense against the AKP fascism and deliberate policies of massacre that killed civilians under the name of security.

Recalling the resistance mounted by Botan region's people throughout the history, the Assembly underlined that the people of Botan will once again play their historic role against the repression, intimidation and massacre policies of the Turkish state with the inspiration they gained from the most recent Kobanê resistance.

Describing the resistance of Kurdish people as a fight of honour, Cizre Democratic People's Assembly called on the people of Cizre and Botan to join the ranks of self-defense units in every house and neighborhood and embrace the liberation struggle based on self-rule and self-defense with a spirit of mobilization.
