<<Kurdish Individual Arrested after Iranian Security Forces Assault His
Mother and Threaten to Kill His Captive Brother
As part of the ongoing wave of arrests of individuals in Kurdistan ahead
of the second anniversary of the state murder of Jina Amini, Zaniar
Afsari, a Kurdish individual from Marivan, was handed over to the
intelligence agency after his family was threatened that his brother
would be killed if they did not turn Zaniar in. He was subsequently
transferred to an undisclosed location. According to a report received
by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, on Wednesday, September 11,
2024, 33-year-old Zaniar Afsari, a resident of the village of Ney in the
Marivan district, turned himself over to security forces after his
brother, Kamran Afsari, was arrested, and his release was conditioned on
Zaniar surrendering. Zaniar was then arrested and transferred to an
unknown location. Sources familiar with the case reported that on
Wednesday, the family was summoned to the intelligence office, where
they were told that for Kamran Afsari’s release, his brother Zaniar had
to be handed over. A member of the intelligence agency, with the surname
Mohammadi (Yousefzadeh), threatened the family that if they did not hand
over Zaniar, Kamran would be killed. Zaniar Afsari subsequently turned
himself in and was arrested. Kamran Afsari was arrested on Tuesday,
September 10, during a raid by intelligence forces on his family’s home,
without any judicial warrant and with the use of violence. He was
released the following day after threats were made and Zaniar was handed
over. It is worth noting that during Kamran Afsari’s arrest, a member of
the intelligence forces, with the surname Yousefzadeh, assaulted
Kamran's mother and struck her head with the butt of a gun. At the time
of this report, no precise information is available regarding the
reasons for Zaniar Afsari's arrest, the charges against him, his
whereabouts, or his fate.>>

Jinas' and our Victory is near!
Jinha - Womens News Agency - Sept. 13, 2024 - by MASUME PARIZAD
<<Women in Tehran: We will never return to the pre-revolutionary
uprising
"We will never return to the pre-revolutionary uprising" women in Tehran
told NuJINHA, speaking about the second anniversary of the "Jin, Jiyan,
Azadi" uprising that sparked in Iran following the killing of Jina Mahsa.
Tehran- On September 13, 2022, Jina Mahsa Amini was arrested by Iran's
so-called <morality police> in Tehran for <improperly wearing the hijab>.
On September 16, 2022, she died in hospital from the injuries. Women
attending the funeral of Jina Mahsa Amini chanted the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi
(Women, Life, Freedom)" slogan, starting an uprising that spread across
Iran and Rojhilat Kurdistan (Eastern Kurdistan or Iranian Kurdistan).
The uprising led by women echoed all over the world. As the second
anniversary of the uprising is approaching, NuJINHA spoke to some women
in Tehran about the uprising.
'Women keep resisting'
"We will never return to the pre-revolutionary uprising," said Samane
Afroz, a human rights defender in Tehran, stressing that what happened
in 2022 was the beginning of a never-ending revolutionary uprising to
get rid of oppression and violence against women. "Even though the
government escalates its repression and the women's revolutionary
uprising seems to have ended, everyone should know that women and girls
keep resisting despite restrictions and oppression. The presence of
unveiled women in public spaces is one of the gains achieved by women.
Women demanding freedom refuse the compulsory hijab laws."
'The government uses violence and arrests against protesters'
"The government uses violence and arrests against protesters," said
Bahar Bayati, one of the women who were arrested for participating in
street protests in Tehran. "They (Iranian authorities) do not want the
voices of civil and political movements to be heard. However, the
movements continue their resistance by making their voices heard all
around the world on social media platforms. The revolutionary uprising
led by women demanding freedom against the compulsory hijab is an
uprising aimed at breaking the chains of the totalitarian religious
government."
An unprecedented popular uprising
The "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" revolutionary uprising emerged following the
killing of Jina Mahsa Amini, said sociologist Ziba Eskandrian. "It was
an unprecedented popular uprising. The uprising based on the ‘Jin, Jiyan,
Azadî’ philosophy revealed the structural weaknesses of the government.
This revolution is actually a super revolution that shows the values of
the young generation that challenges traditional, religious,
patriarchal, discriminatory and authoritarian norms. Although the
government escalates its repression, the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" uprising
has many political and cultural impacts. We know we will achieve
victory."
'The revolution continues'
"No one knows what the future of the revolutionary uprising will be or
when it will prevail," said Rozhin Naghdar, another woman in Tehran. "We
are on the second anniversary of the revolution and the revolution
continues. The "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" revolution paves the way for the next
uprisings for freedom." >>

<<Delal Botan: Built-up anger started the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" revolution
"The anger and hatred that were built up against the government turned
into a revolutionary uprising," said Delal Botan of the HPJ, pointing to
the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" uprising that started in Iran and Eastern
Kurdistan.
News Center- In an interview with NuJINHA, Delal Botan, member of the
East Kurdistan Women's Defense Units (HPJ) commented on the "Jin, Jiyan,
Azadi" uprising that started in Iran and Eastern Kurdistan following the
killing of Jina Mahsa Amini by Iran's so-called <morality police> on
September 16, 2022.
The "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" revolution did not emerge from just a headscarf
or a strand of hair, Delal Botan said. "The anger and hatred that were
built up against the government turned into a revolutionary uprising.
This anger was no longer an ordinary uprising. When we looked at
people's faces, we could see how angry they were about the oppression
inflicted against them by the government for years. Years of oppression
suddenly exploded like a bomb, and women led this explosion."
'A feeling of excitement and search arose inside us'
Speaking about the first moments of the uprising, Delal Botan said, "In
the first days, there were not many protests in our region. We were
three friends at school and decided to attend the protests. Although we
felt fear and hesitation, we chanted our slogans. Slowly, our other
friends joined us. We chanted the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" slogan, which we
did not really know what it meant at first. During the protests, a
feeling of excitement and search arose inside us and we began to ask
questions such as "Women means life, why do we not have this life?" A
movement that emphasizes the importance of women and women's thoughts
exists. A life based on the ideology and philosophy of leader Apo
(Abdullah Ocalan) led me to participate in the struggle for freedom."
'Always make great efforts for your existence'
At the end of her speech, Delal Botan called on women and young people
to "always make great efforts for your existence and freedom. You are
strong and there is still a long way to go. Leader Apo says, 'don't
betray your dreams, and fight for freedom'.">>

News Center- Women in Iran and Rojhilat (Eastern Kurdistan or Iranian
Kurdistan) are getting ready to take to the streets on September 16, on
the second anniversary of the killing of Jina Mahsa Amini by Iran's
so-called <morality police> in Tehran. Since political parties, civil

called for a general strike on September 16, many organizations and
activists have announced that they will join the strike.
Women in Iran and Rojhilat have released a written statement, announcing
that they will join the strike.
"We have a duty to continue our struggle and follow the path of the
martyrs,” the statement said. “On the second anniversary of the killing
of Jina Mahsa Amini, we will take to the streets in order to tell the
Islamic Republic of Iran what our revolution and resistance are. There
are fighters at every home in Kurdistan. The second anniversary of the
‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ uprising led by women is approaching. We shocked the
mullah regime by organizing a march to condemn the killing of Jina Amini.
The unity and solidarity of freedom-loving women in Kurdistan will stand
against the executions, oppression and crimes of the Iranian regime. On
the second anniversary of the Jin, Jiyan, Azadi revolution, we will
visit the graves of our martyrs to honor their memory. We announce that
we will join the general strike that will be staged on September 16." >>

Mothers of martyrs
Jinha - Womens News Agency - Sept. 12, 2024 - PELIN NUPELDA
<<'Mothers of martyrs do not accept the occupation'
"As mothers of martyrs, we do not accept either the conspiracy or the
occupation. We will resist and struggle to the end," said the women of
the Council of Martyrs' Families in Qamishlo.
Qamishlo- The Turkish state has intensified its attacks on North and
East Syria, violating international conventions and laws. Those who
suffer the most from these attacks are the civilians who are subjected
to the ongoing Turkish attacks. NuJINHA spoke to the members of the
Council of Martyrs' Families in Qamishlo, a city in northeastern Syria.
'The attacks are carried out with the support of the KDP'
At the beginning of her speech, Xeyriye Hisen Xelef condemned the
ongoing Turkish attacks on North and East Syria. "The Turkish state
carries out brutal attacks in Rojava and other regions, openly killing
civilians. Everyone remains silent against these attacks as if nothing
happens. Children, women and displaced civilians are targeted by the
Turkish attacks. The Turkish state attacks not only Rojava but also
Southern Kurdistan (Iraqi Kurdistan). Every day, we see how attacks are
carried out against our people and freedom fighters in cooperation with
the KDP (Kurdistan Democratic Party). The attacks are carried out with
the support of the KDP. The Turkish state uses chemical weapons in
Kurdistan, displacing and killing civilians."
'We will not bow down to the occupation'
As Kurds, we need unity to resist the occupation, Xeyriye Hisen Xelef
emphasized. "The Turkish state attacks everywhere and this shows the
weakness and collapse of the Turkish state. As mothers of martyrs and
the Kurdish people, we will not bow down to the occupation. The attacks
cannot break our will. As the Kurdish people, we should rise against the
attacks. All people demanding freedom and human rights organizations
should take a stand against the occupation and attacks of the Turkish
state."
'The attacks target the will of women and the Kurdish people'
"The countries that support the Turkish state do not want the Kurdish
people to have their rights," said Fadya Sileman, another member of the
council. "Kurds are subjected to Turkish attacks every day. We grew up
in the midst of displacement, oppression and difficult living conditions
due to the attacks, occupations and lootings of the Turkish state. Due
to the Turkish attacks, many children, women and elderly people are
deprived of their right to life, losing their arms and legs. The attacks
target the will of women and the Kurdish people."
'We will resist and struggle'
We will resist and struggle to the end, Fadya Sileman stressed, adding,
"There is an international hypocrisy and betrayal against us, Kurds. We
know that the states that act as if they are on our side also support
the Turkish state. Neither history nor the Kurdish people will forget
this betrayal. As mothers of martyrs, we do not accept either the
conspiracy or the occupation. We will resist and struggle to the end and
follow in the footsteps of our martyrs.">>

<<Call for general strike on second anniversary of uprising in Iran
Political parties, civil society organizations and human rights
activists in Rojhilat Kurdistan call for a general strike on September
16, marking the second anniversary of the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" uprising.
News Center- Political parties, NGOs and human rights defenders in
Rojhilat Kurdistan (Eastern Kurdistan or Iranian Kurdistan) have called
for a general strike on September 16, marking the second anniversary of
the "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Women, Life, Freedom)" uprising that sparked in
Iran following the killing of Jina Mahsa Amini by Iran's so-called
<morality police>. Since the call, many organizations and movements have
released statements, expressing that they will join the strike.
"September 16 marks the anniversary of the killing of Jina Mahsa Amini
and the beginning of the uprising in which our loved ones and children
sacrificed their lives for victory," said the statement released by the
Kurdistan Mothers for Justice. "On the eve of the second anniversary, we
express our support to the call of Kurdish activists and call on all
families to support each other and visit the graves of our loved ones on
September 16. We call on the people of Kurdistan to stay at home, close
their shops and not go to work on September 16."
Call for a general strike
20 civil society organizations have also published a joint statement,
announcing that they will join the strike. "Since the killing of Jina
Amini, people of Rojhilat and Iran have been subjected to many human
rights violations. Arbitrary arrests, torture, executions, and
oppression have become common practices of the Iranian government's
security forces," the statement said. "Despite international
condemnation, Iranian authorities continue to oppress Kurds and other
opponents. A common action and attitude is a must now. On the eve of the
second anniversary of the killing of Jina, political parties, civil
society organizations and human rights activists have called for a
general strike across Eastern Kurdistan on September 16, 2024. We
express our support to the call and call on all people in Kurdistan and
Iran to join the strike. We also call on the international community to
