These videos were recorded in 2020 in the mountains of Avashin by the HPG and YJA Star media press center as a way to share about the life of the guerrillas and their comradeship. The program is called “DEMA GERILLA” which means “Time of Guerrilla” and was spread by the Kurdish Sterk TV television channel in 15 parts, we added subtitle to some of them and will be sharing them weekly.
In 24 of April of 2021, the turkish fascist state launched an invasion in Zap, Metina and Avashin with a greater focus on Metina and Avashin. The hevals portrayed on this program played their role on the defense of the free mountains, that lasted for 9 months with the withdrawal of the fascist forces and no major gains for their goals. However, during this period, many comrades were martyred, especially by the use of chemical weapons in the tunnels of the guerrillas… Most of the friends that appear on this program are no longer with us physically, but their struggle, their heroic resistance lives with us, as well as their revolutionary spirits and goals. We promised to continue their struggle and avenge their martyrdom.
Once again, in April of this year, the turkish fascist state launched another operation as continuation of the last year’s one and as a way to try to achieve the goals that they could not in the last year. Right now, hundreds of guerrillas are resisting the attacks and inflicting heavy blows to the enemy under the experience gained last year and the spirit of those martyrs. Martyrs are immortals!
