“Women develops consciousness about freedom during fighting. Fighting in Raqqa demands a very strong will. In Kobane they (ISIS) wanted to destroy the will of people and especially women. They wanted to destroy everything. In Aleppo, Minbic, Kobane and in all of North Syria they were planning to destroy lives of people. But from Kobane to Raqqa we stood against it and we are making gains step by step” she said.

Amargi said that women can only be free if they struggle and resist and with this awareness women fights in Raqqa and other parts of Northern Syria.

“We will announce good news of Raqqa’s liberation in the near future” Amargi said.
