Jinha - 9 Jan 2024 - by HESNA MIHEMED
<<Commemoration for 3 Kurdish women politicians murdered in Paris
The Free Women's Movement (TJA) held an activity in Van to commemorate
three Kurdish women politicians, who were murdered in Paris on January
9, 2013.
Van- Sakine Cansız (Sara), one of the founders of the PKK, Fidan Dogan (Rojbin),
Paris Representative of the Kurdistan National Congress (KNK), and Leyla
Şaylemez (Ronahi) were murdered in Paris on January 9, 2013. On the 11th
anniversary of their death, the Free Women's Movement (Kurdish: Tevgera
Jin-n Azad-TJA) held a commemoration ceremony with the participation of
the members of the People's Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party),
the Association for Solidarity with the Families of Prisoners and
Convicts (TUHAYDER), the Association of Assistance and Solidarity with
Families Who Lost Their Relatives in the Cradle of Civilizations (MEBYA-DER),
the Aryen Culture and Arts Association, the ARSİSA Language, Culture and
Art Research Center Association, Peace Mothers' Initiative and many
people.
'Nothing could make us take a step back'
After a minute’s silence for those who lost their lives in the struggle
for democracy and freedom, DEM Party Van MP Gulderen Varlı made a
speech. Although 11 years have passed since the massacre in Paris, the
perpetrators of the massacre have still not been revealed. ,We know that
MIT (The National Intelligence Organization in Turkey) murdered our
three comrades. Our three comrades were murdered as a result of Turkey's
century-old policies towards the Kurdish issue. The struggle of Sakine
Cansız was a women’s struggle. The Kurdish people have been subjected to
dozens of massacres during their 50-year struggle. However, nothing
could make us take a step back from our struggle for freedom..
'Sakine's struggle is a guiding light for us'
Sakine Cansız is the symbol for women in Kurdistan, Gulderen Varlı said.
,Sakine's struggle is a guiding light for us. We will strengthen our
struggle in all facets of life despite arrests, torture and the policy
of depopulation. We are ready to pay the price no matter what it is. We
commemorate Sakine and her comrades with respect.> >>

<<Yemeni Women's Union fights violence against women
The Yemeni Women's Union (YWU) has carried out activities to empower
women since 1968 and one of its goals is to end gender-based violence.
Yemen- The Yemeni Women's Union is an independent voluntary
non-governmental organization established since the 1960s. During the
Unification of North and South Yemen, the women's organizations from
both countries were merged. They all merged into the Yemeni Women's
Union in 1990. The Union provides psychological and social support to
women, who are subjected to gender-based violence due to conflict and
war in the country, and holds awareness-raising activities about women's
rights. The Union also works in cooperation with government agencies,
local and international NGOs to ensure gender equality.
It provides psychological and legal support
NuJINHA spoke to Sabah Rajeh, Director of the Yemen Women's Union branch
in Taiz Governorate, about their activities. <Our union provides
psychological and legal support to women and it develops projects to
provide training programs to women and promote women's economic
empowerment. In Taiz, we provide support to women affected by the
conflict. We provide support to women living in a number of the
districts of the province such as Al-Maaqir, Al-Mawsit and Al-Shamatin.
We have put many projects such as sewing, sheep raising, and small
projects into practice in the districts to promote women's economic
empowerment.> Speaking about how they provide legal support to women,
she said, <We have provided legal support to women when they face
problems in alimony or child custody. We also provide psychological
support to women by organizing meetings with the participation of
psychologists.>
The union works in cooperation with the Women and Girls Protection and
Rehabilitation Center in Taiz to support women survivors of violence.
<The center provides a shelter for survivors of gender-based violence.
When survivors of gender-based violence apply to our union, we send them
to the center.>
'One of our goals is to end gender-based violence'
The Yemeni Women's Union works in cooperation with judicial authorities,
the police, and NGOs to provide service to women. <The union works in
cooperation with other Yemeni governorates such as the governorates in
Sana'a and Aden to provide service to women. One of our goals is to end
gender-based violence.> >>

<<Taliban arrest women for wearing ‘bad hijab’
The Taliban have arrested several women in Kabul for wearing 'bad Hijab'.
News Center- The Taliban authorities have intensified their crackdown
against dress code violations. According to the local reports,
authorities arrested at least 10 women in the Khair Khana and Dasht-e
Barchi neighborhoods of Kabul on Sunday for not following the dress code
imposed by the Taliban. The local sources reported that the Taliban's
Ministry of Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice officials had
arrested women and taken them to unknown locations. In recent days, the
Taliban's Ministry of Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice has
initiated a new wave of arrests against girls and women in various areas
of Kabul for not following the dress code. The crackdown is the latest
blow to Afghan women and girls, who have already been marginalized by
the Taliban's bans on education, employment, and restrictions in access
to public spaces. In May 2022, the Taliban issued a decree and called on
Afghan women to show only their eyes in public.>>

A fire erupted Monday evening at Women and Children's Hospital in
Diwaniyiah killed four babies who had been born prematurely.
News Center- A fire erupted Monday evening at Women and Children's
Hospital in Diwaniyiah, southern Iraq, sending smoke through a maternity
ward and killing four babies who had been born prematurely. According to
the local sources, the hospital building did not burn but it was filled
with smoke, and the four babies died of chest problems as a result of
smoke inhalation. Iraq's Red Crescent Society said in a statement that
its teams successfully evacuated 150 children and 190 relatives from the
hospital. It also said that the fire might have been triggered by an
electrical problem.
At a press conference, the Iraqi Health Ministry said that the fire had
started at a pile of debris belonging to a construction company working
on renovations at the hospital. In 2016, a fire ripped through a
maternity ward at a Baghdad hospital overnight, killing 12 newborn
babies. In September 2023, more than 100 people died in a blaze ignited
by fireworks during a wedding ceremony in the Qaraqosh town of Iraq.>>

News Center- The People's Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) held
a press conference at its headquarters in Istanbul and announced that it
would hold a demonstration in Istanbul's Esenyurt district on January 14
to be in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
'Honorable peace can be achieved by solidarity'
<An honorable peace can be achieved in the Middle East by solidarity of
the oppressed people,> said DEM Party Istanbul MP Kezban Konukçu. <We
cannot achieve a true and honorable peace without revealing the true
face of hypocritical and collaborative states. The AKP-MHP government
releases statements saying 'We are against (the Israeli attacks on
Gaza)'; however, its cooperation with Israel continues.> Kezban Konukçu
called on everyone to participate in the demonstration. At the
conference, DEM Party Istanbul Co-chair Gonca Yangoz drew attention to
the ongoing Israeli attacks on Gaza. <It wants to wipe Palestinian
people and their land off the map. Just like what has been done to the
Kurdish people. Civilian spaces, hospitals and grain warehouses are also
being targeted in North and East Syria and Southern Kurdistan. The
countries claiming that they support democracy and peace are a party to
these genocidal attacks. They approve of the wars waged in the Middle
East and ignore the Middle Eastern people.>
'It is time to be a voice of Palestine'
We defend the struggle for freedom and peace of the Kurdish and
Palestinian people, Gonca Yangoz said in her speech. <We say 'No' to the
policies of the regional states, particularly Turkey, that fuel the war.
We call on everyone to stand with the oppressed Palestinian people. It

<<'The Social Contract has been amended as a requirement for democracy'
<The Social Contract approved in North and East Syria has been amended
three times as a requirement for democracy,> said Zelox Bekir,
emphasizing that the contract guarantees the rights of all people in the
region. Shahba- The Social Contract of North and East Syria was first
approved in 2014 and it has been amended three times until now. The
General Council of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria
approved the amended 134 articles of the Social Contract on December 12,
2023. NuJINHA spoke to Zelox Bekir, member of the Preparatory Committee
for the Social Contract about the importance of the contract. Before
approval of the contract, the General Council of the Autonomous
Administration of North and East Syria held many meetings. <At the
meetings, members of tribes and organizations discussed the drafted
contract. Some meetings were suspended due to the attacks on the region.
In 2023, a comprehensive meeting was held and the articles of the
contract were approved after discussions,> Zelox Bekir told us.
'Some articles of the contract had to be amended'
Reminding that the first contract was approved in 2014, Zelox Bekir
said, <According to the contract, North and East Syria consisted of
three cantons: Afrin, Kobane and Qamishlo. The contract was amended in
2017. The amendments defined three regions and six cantons of North and
East Syria. The Afrin Region consisted of two cantons: Afrin and Shahba
cantons. The Euphrates Region consisted of two cantons: Kobane and Gire
Spi cantons and the Jazira Region consisted of two cantons: Hasakah and
Qamishlo cantons. After the liberation of Tabqa, Raqqa, Manbij and Deir
ez-Zor, many things changed. Therefore, some articles of the Social
Contract had to be amended. North and East Syria now consists of seven
cantons: Jazira, Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa, Euphrates, Manbij, Afrin/Shehba,
and Tabqa.>
'The Social Contract consists of four chapters'
The Social Contract approved on December 12, 2023 consists of 134
articles and four chapters. <The first chapter is about basic principles
of society, and the AANES. The second chapter is about fundamental
rights and freedoms. This chapter says that every person has freedom of
belief, conscience, thought and opinion. The third chapter is titled as
the Societal System. It is about education, training, organization,
economy, health and mother language. In this chapter, the Democratic
Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria organizes its
democratic and free community life based on the formation of: communes,
councils, academies, cooperatives, community economic units and
institutions that complement the community system, which organize
themselves in a confederal manner. The democratic system of society
develops and is consolidated based on these institutions. The fourth
chapter is about general provisions.>
'Women participated in the drafting of contract with their own strength
and experiences'
Zelox Bekir emphasized the role of women in the drafting of the
contract. <Women from all tribes, nationalities and religions
participated in the drafting of the contract; they voiced their opinions
and suggestions. Women participated in the drafting of the social
contract with their own strength and experiences. The contract puts
emphasis on women’s rights and organizations. The most important of its
goals is the principle of women's freedom and achieving gender equality.
The contract guarantees the equal participation of women in all facets
of life. Women have been fighting for their rights for years and the
social contract is a success for women thanks to the women, who resisted
and made great efforts throughout the Rojava Revolution.>
'The contract has an article about Yazidis'
The Social Contract guarantees the rights of Yazidis and Syriac people.
<Article 41 of the Social Contract asserts the right of the Yazidis.
Article 17 guarantees the political, cultural and economic rights of the
Syriac-Assyrian people,> said Zelox Bekir.
'People write their own history'
<The AANES has protected the rights of the people since 2014. The 10th
anniversary of the AANES is approaching. For about 10 years, the Social
Contract has been amended three times as a requirement for democracy.
However, the Constitution of Syria has not been amended for 50 years,>
Zelox Bekir said, <The Social Contract guarantees equal life for
everyone in North and East Syria. Today, the people of North and East
Syria write their own history.> >>

In the footsteps of Sakine Cansız
Jinha - 9 Jan 2024 - by ŞIRIN SALIH
<<Women journalists: We follow in the footsteps of Sakine Cansız
<Sakine Cansız made great efforts to raise awareness among women and we
follow in her footsteps,> said women journalists, emphasizing that the
Turkish state was behind the murder of Sara, Rojbin and Ronahi in Paris.
Sulaymaniyah- On January 9, 2013, Sakine Cansız (Sara), Leyla Şaylemez (Ronahi)
and Fidan Dogan (Rojbin) were murdered in Paris by the Turkish state.
Today is the 11th anniversary of their death. Journalist Shay Aram
thinks that the struggle of Sakine Cansız had an impact on free
journalists. <Sakine Cansız made great efforts to raise awareness among
women and we follow in her footsteps. Comrade Sakine Cansız was held in
prison for 10 years and she gave hope to other women in prison. We
should give hope to women in society as she did,> Shay Aram said.
'The voices of free women will never be silenced'
Noting that Sakine Cansız and her comrades were murdered in France, a
country defining itself as a democratic country, Shay Aram said
<Assassinations are always carried out against pioneering women.
However, the voices of free women will never be silenced. The Turkish
state always targets Kurdish women demanding freedom. The assassination
of comrade Sara shows how the Turkish state is afraid of women's
struggle for freedom. Comrade Sara and her comrades always made efforts
for the unity of women and the Kurdish people. As women, we should carry
on their struggle.>
'We will carry on their struggle'
Journalist Hawar Mohammed also spoke about the massacre that took place
in Paris on January 9, 2013 and said, <Sakine Cansız rejected the
patriarchal system and believed in the 'Jin, Jiyan, Azadi' philosophy
when she was a child. The Turkish state killed Sakine Cansız and her two
comrades with the support of other countries. The martyrdom of Sakine
Cansız and her two comrades was a great loss for us, Kurds. The Turkish
state aimed to scare us by murdering Sakine Cansız and her comrades but
it failed; women keep struggling for freedom and follow in the footsteps
of Sakine Cansız. As women journalists, we will carry on the struggle of
martyr Sakine Cansız and her comrades.> >>

<<More than 10 children losing legs in Gaza every day
More than 10 children per day, on average, have lost one or both of
their legs in Gaza since conflict erupted three months ago, said Save
the Children.
News Center- At least 10,000 children have been killed in Israeli
attacks on Gaza since October 7, 2023. Save the Children, a leading
humanitarian organization for children, released a statement regarding
the situation of Palestinian children in Gaza. <Since 7 October, more
than 1,000 children have had one or both legs amputated, according to
UNICEF. Many of these operations on children were done without
anaesthetic, with the healthcare system in Gaza crippled by the
conflict, and major shortages of doctors and nurses, and medical
supplies like anesthesia and antibiotics, according to the World Health
Organization (WHO),> the statement said. In Gaza, 13 out of 36 hospitals
remain partially functional, they are operating on a partial and
fluctuating basis, dependent on their access to fuel and basic medical
supplies on any given day. The nine partially functional hospitals in
the south are operating at three times their capacity, while facing
critical shortages of basic supplies and fuel, according to the
statement. Only 30% of Gaza’s pre-conflict medics are still working,
according to the WHO. <I've seen doctors and nurses completely
overwhelmed when children come in with blast wounds. The impact of
seeing children in that much pain and not having the equipment,
medicines to treat them or alleviate pain is too much for even
experienced professionals. Even in a war zone, the sights and sounds of
a young child mutilated by bombs cannot be reconciled let alone
understood within the bounds of humanity,> said Jason Lee, Save the
Children's Country Director for the occupied Palestinian territory.
<Small children caught up in explosions are particularly vulnerable to
major, life changing injuries. They have weaker necks and torsos, so
less force is needed to cause a brain injury. Their skulls are still not
fully formed, and their undeveloped muscles offer less protection, so a
blast is more likely to tear apart organs in their abdomen, even when
there's no visible damage. Small children caught up in explosions are

judge us all. We must heed the lessons from the past and must prevent

without doing anything.>
Emphasizing that war conditions also hinder the works of women's
organizations, Nahla Al-Dabaa added:
<Our organization receives no grant or support from any international
organizations. It works in cooperation with other organizations
defending human rights. The increasing number of refugees affects the

organizations have an important role in providing psychological support

projects and opportunity to find a job,> said Amina Habib. <One of the
most important goals of our organization is to support young women to
complete their education so that they can take part in the labor force.
We develop projects to support them.>
'All young women can participate in the program'
Speaking about the <Leadership and Project Management> program launched
by the organization, she said, <All young women can participate in the
program. All they need is to develop their own projects and make great
efforts to realize their projects. More than 800,000 women entrepreneurs
are currently members of our organization. We first determine what young
women need and then provide all supplies such as sewing machines and
financial support to young women.>
'Young women should not miss any opportunity'
The Women Proactive Leaders Mauritanie has an official branch in
Nouakchott but it aims to open branches across Mauritania in the future.
Amina Habib advised young women to <make great efforts and believe in
themselves. They should not care about what other people say and think
about them. Whoever sows generously will also reap generously. They will
face many difficulties at the beginning of their journey but they should
not give up. Young women should not miss any opportunity until they
achieve their goals.> >>
