The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) caiied out widespread women’s military training camps last year, 2023, to commemorate the 54th anniversary of their organziation, and to increase their military capacity.
The women learned basic and advanced military techinques. They learned how to handle light weapons, deal with explosives, and training in storming enemy sites.
Women felt they obtained rights from both the political and military side of the struggle through engaging deeper in the process of resistance.
The women’s unit of the National Resistance Brigades, since 2014, the Brigades founding, has contributed to training thousands of young women in the art of war.
In 2021 women were integral in the front line struggles and are definitely participating since the October 7th uprising.
