Kurds celebrate Newroz in Cairo

Kurds living in Cairo lighted a bonfire to celebrate Newroz.

Kurds living the Egyptian capital Cairo organised a celebration to welcome Kurdish New Year Newroz. Speaking here, Syrian Democratic Council representative for Egypt, Leyla Musa wished a happy Newroz to all the Kurds and oppressed peoples.

Defining Newroz as a feast of freedom and resistance, Leyla Musa said that Newroz at the same time represented equality, resistance and co-existence of peoples.

Musa wished that future Newroz days would be celebrated after liberation of the Turkish-occupied Afrin, Serekaniye and Gire Spi cities in northern Syria.

The speech was followed by Kurdish music performance and dance.
