The Press Center of the People’s Defense Forces (HPG) issued a statement to report on the resistance of the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla against the Turkish invasion in the Medya Defense Areas and the recent attacks by the Turkish army.

Guerrilla actions in Zap and Xakurke

According to the statement, on 21 November, on the western front of the Zap region, a radar system installed by the Turkish army in the Amêdî resistance area was destroyed by an HPG sniper. On Saturday, occupation soldiers in the area were attacked with heavy weapons. Fighters from the Free Women’s Associations (YJA Star) intervened several times on Saturday in the western Zap region with semi-automatic weapons against an attempted advance by the invading troops to a guerrilla tunnel in the Girê Cûdî area.

The advance was stopped. In Xakurke, guerrillas attacked the occupying troops in the Girê Şehîd Hêmin area with heavy weapons on Friday and shot down a small drone over the Lolan area. The wreckage of the crashed drone was secured by the guerrillas.

Attacks by the Turkish army

As to the attacks by the Turkish army, the HPG reported that prohibited explosives were used four times against tunnel systems in the Girê FM and Girê Cûdî areas in the past few days.

The Xakurke, Gare, Metîna and Zap regions were bombed 39 times by fighter jets between 19 and 24 November. A further seven air strikes with attack helicopters were carried out on 21 and 23 November on the Girê Bahar and Girê Cûdî areas in the Zap.
