Message from Werxelê fighters: "We will fight to the bitter end"

"We will not allow the enemy to easily set foot in these blood-drenched lands. We promise to fight to the bitter end and win with this spirit and faith," say the guerrillas in Werxelê, Avaşîn.

The guerrillas who resist the invading Turkish army in the Werxelê area in the Avaşîn region said, “We will not allow the enemy to easily set foot in these lands. We promise to fight to the bitter end and win with this spirit and faith.”

Werxelê fighters delivered a message “to the public and to our comrades”, saying the following:

“We send our warmest greetings and love from the resistance grounds to Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan, our comrades in prison, our fellow fighters, and our people who are passionate about freedom and love.

As you know, since April 23, a great resistance and struggle has been carried out under the leadership of our prominent commanders Serhat, Diyana, Bawer and Delal, inspired by our precursors Mazlum Doğan, Kemal and Hayri, against the war concept seeking to eliminate the cause of freedom and the guerrilla. All the comrades in this resistance experience a high level of excitement and enthusiasm.

Many of our comrades who took part in this resistance fought up to the end and fell as martyrs. As their fellow fighters, we will also sacrifice our bodies if necessary. And if necessary, we can sacrifice our lives like Zilan against the enemy! We will not allow the enemy to easily set foot in these blood-drenched lands. We promise to fight to the bitter end and win with this spirit and faith!”
