Might be the best overview of the current situation in Syria we've come across.
Today is the tenth anniversary of what is the most important revolution of our times. BIJI BERXWEDANA ROJAVA!
Our antifascist collective is extremely proud that our battle flag has been flown around the world. But nothing makes us prouder than seeing the antifa volunteers in the @YPG, @YPJ, & other forces like @AfrinAFA take it into battle in defence of the Rojava revolution. BTW, we just got a re-up of our flags and we’ll send you one in exchange for a contribution to The International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund.
We are sharing some of our favourite gifs each day this month for Antifa International’s anniversary. Today we honor the antifascist fighters of the YPG/YPJ and their allies, and their heroic fight against the fascism of Daesh/ISIS.
This short doc about Charlie - a YPG volunteer from Bristol, is really worth watching.
Just when you thought the British government couldn’t be any worse, they detain & arrest the family members of a volunteer YPG fighter. Because apparently being related to someone fighting ISIS makes you a terrorist. Shameful, shameful shite, Boris & co.
If you want to help Rojava right now and would also like to stay warm as the season cools, why not buy one of our SUPPORT ROJAVA t-shirts, long-sleeves, or hoodies? Proceeds will be split between Heyva Sor a Kurdistanê - the Kurdish Red Crescent and the only source of medical aid throughout much of Rojava; and Campaign Rojava, which provides emergency medical supplies like combat dressings to YPG/YPJ volunteers. GET YOURS RIGHT HERE!

A very detailed report illustrating Turkey’s continued support of Daesh/ISIS fascists, which it’s now integrating into the ranks of the “Free Syrian Army” as cannon fodder in its campaign to wipe Rojava of the Kurds living there off the map.

YPJ fighters Amara and Güneş, murdered on April 3rd by a Daesh suicide bomber as they were processing surrendering Daesh terrorists. Never forget. Never forgive.

This International Women’s Day goes out to the brave women of the YPJ, who are fighting to defend their feminist Rojava revolution against the fascist partiarchy of Daesh/ISIS/The Turkish state. JIN! JIYAN! AZADI!
