Jinha - Womens News Agency - July 11 , 2024 - by RONIDA HACI
<<'The revolution has opened the door to freedom for women'
<The revolution in Rojava has opened the door to freedom for women,> said the women attending the 5th congress of the Young Women's Union in Hasakah.
Hasakah- The Young Women's Union held its 5th Congress in Hasakah on Wednesday with the participation of 500 women delegates.
NuJINHA spoke to two women, who participated in the congress.
'The situation of leader Apo and self-defense were discussed'
The aim of the congress was to strengthen the unity of young women, said Heyfa Bekir, Co-chair of the Youth Sports Organization. <The situation of leader Apo (Abdullah Ocalan) and self-defense were among the issues discussed at the congress. We discussed how women can defend themselves and organize their society. Today, women have a powerful status thanks to the thoughts and ideology of Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan. For this reason, the ruling and hegemonic powers have intensified their attacks on women.>
'The Turkish state is afraid of the power of free women'
Heyfa Bekir continued her speech as follows: <The Turkish state and the ruling powers target the pioneering women because they are afraid of the power and thoughts of free women. Despite the ongoing attacks on pioneering women, women say, 'Whenever one of our comrades is martyred, we want to get revenge'. The Young Women's Union will attach importance to self-defense activities because young women are aware of the dirty policies carried out against them.>
'We want to reach all women in the Middle East'
<Young women proved their important role in the July 19 Revolution (Rojava Revolution)> said Losnak Kavoriyan, member of the Armenian Young Women's Union in North and East Syria. <The goal of young women is to ensure freedom for all women. We want to reach all women in the Middle East by building a free future in northeastern Syria. Thanks to the ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ revolution, women have their own identity and become aware of their roles in their society. Before the women's revolution in Rojava, women had no rights. The revolution has opened the door to freedom for women. Women have become a role model for all women in the Middle East by leading the revolution. Thanks to this revolution, young Armenian women have recognized themselves and protected their social values.> >>

<<Raids conducted by HTS in Idlib scare children and women

They aim to silence people
The spouse of Meryem Salmo (29) was beaten, insulted, threatened and then arrested by the members of the HTS, who wore face masks. <My spouse did nothing to deserve such a terrible arrest. He always tried to stay away from trouble. The members of the HTS use such inhuman practices to suppress possible protests.> The spouse of Meryam Salmo has been held in prison for five months. <My children are still afraid of staying at home because they think that what happened would happen again. They cannot overcome the trauma caused by the HTS. I have not been allowed to see my spouse for five months.>
'Children suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder'
Intimation, raids and violence cause post-traumatic stress disorder among children and women, psychologist Duaa Nur El-Din told NuJINHA. <Such terrifying events affect the mental health condition of children, especially children under six years old. In such situations, mothers have an important role to make children feel safe. All kinds of aggressive practices in Idlib should be ended to protect children.> >>
