The Patriotic Students’ Union and the Revolutionary Youth Movement and the Euphrates Canton Culture and Art Centre called for mobilisation, saying: “To protect the land and the country is to protect one's honour.”
The Patriotic Students Union of Euphrates Canton and Revolutionary Youth Movement made statements calling for action against the increasingly ongoing attacks of the occupying Turkish state and its gangs against North and East Syria.
Patriotic Students' Union: We will not allow the gangs to make our heavenly lands their home
The statement made by the Patriotic Students' Union at Kobanê University was read by union member Rojhat Daban, who said the following: “We strongly condemn the attacks on our lands and salute the historic resistance of our people in Aleppo and Shehba. This attack is the continuation of the occupying Turkish state’s plan that failed with DAESH. The aim of these attacks is the occupation of the areas they have determined as ‘Misak-ı Milli’. With these attacks, the occupying Turkish state wants to first divide Syria and then occupy it. One of the aims of these attacks is to destroy the Syrian people's hope for a free and dignified life.
In order to end these genocidal attacks, Arab, Kurdish, Syriac, Assyrian and Turkmen students all over Syria must join hands and strengthen their unity. To protect the land and the country is to protect one's honour. On this basis, we will not allow the invading gangs to make our heavenly lands their home, no matter the cost. We will defeat the occupation and genocide attempt in the spirit of the Rojava Revolution.
In consideration of the current situation, as the Patriotic Students’ Union, we call on the youth and our people to mobilise. All Syrian students must rise up in the spirit of mobilisation and patriotism and take their place in the revolutionary people's war. Let's protect our country, our honour and the peoples' revolution together.”
Revolutionary Youth Movement: We are ready to mobilise and avenge our martyrs
The statement of the Revolutionary Youth Movement, read by Hîla Elî, said the following: “Our people in Aleppo and Shehba are being destroyed inhumanely. We salute the resistance of the Self-Defence forces. It is seen that our war will not be easy. On this basis, we should take our weapons and stand up like the young people of Kobanê did. We will manifest our attitude wherever an attack takes place and we will defeat the Turkish state. The Freedom Movement has been resisting for 50 years without interruption. We, as youth from Dêrik to Shehba, are ready to mobilise and avenge our martyrs. We call on all young people to stand up and join the HPC.”
