Friends, family and colleagues have paid tribute to British woman fighter Anna Campbell who was martyred in Afrin while fighting against Turkish invasion.

Campbell was a member of YPJ, all-woman military organization fighting against ISIS and Turkish invaders.
Bristol Post published tributes for Campbell, who lived in Bristol for three years before travelling to Northern Syria.

Isaac Kneebone, a colleague of Campbell, said that she was involved with environmental campaigns and hunt sabbing.

Kneebone also told about a story when Campbell set off fireworks outside Horfield Prison on bonfire night so the prisoners could see them.

Speaking to Bristol Post, Anna’s sister Sophie Campbel said, “She was a very passionate and heartfelt person. She was so determined. She had a deep empathy for people who were in need”.

Industrial Workers of the World union (IWW) spokesperson said: “Anna was known to members for her activism around the student occupation movement, ecological and community outreach projects in Bristol and Sheffield”.

Humphrey Drummond, a friend of Anna’s family, has set up a crowdfunding page to raise money for people who have suffered as a result of the Turkish incursion into northern Syria.
