Protests against the Turkish use of chemical weapons in Kurdistan are taking place across Europe.

Last week, the medical peace organization IPPNW published a report on possible violations of the chemical weapons ban by Turkey in attacks on Kurdish civilians and PKK fighters in northern Iraq. Today, the People's Defense Forces (HPG) reported the deaths of 17 fighters from poison gas in the past few weeks. Footage of two guerrilla fighters injured by chemical weapons appeared.

The Kurdish Women's Movement in Europe (TJK-E) and the European umbrella organization KCDK-E called for the protests.

Nuremberg
“Germany, with its supposedly value-based foreign policy, must act”

In Nuremberg, too, there were protests in the city center against the chemical weapons attacks by the Turkish army on guerrilla positions in southern Kurdistan, which violate international law. It was pointed out that between April 14 and October 14, 2022 alone, the Turkish state used internationally banned poison gas more than two and a half thousand times, which was investigated and confirmed by the medical peace organization IPPNW, among others. Just today, the names of 17 freedom fighters who have recently fallen victim to chemical weapons attacks have become public.
The demonstrators complained that the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) was informed but had not taken any action. And the EU and especially Germany, with its supposedly "value-based" foreign policy, turn a blind eye when it comes to war crimes committed by the Turkish state.
