Since 23 April, the Turkish army has been trying with all its capabilities to capture the areas of Zap, Avashîn and Metîna in South Kurdistan.
Pelşin Koçgiri, one of the commanders of the female guerrilla YJA-Star, speaks about the strategic offensive on Medya TV.
She said: “Indeed, the final phase of World War III is currently taking place in the Medya Defense Areas. The center of the war is Kurdistan anyway and this world war started with the plot against Rêber Apo [Abdullah Öcalan]. We have renewed ourselves as guerrillas in this process. We have adapted to the new era, developed new structures and equipped ourselves in such a way that we can survive a high-tech war. That is the real danger that the enemy perceives, which is why it first tried to get rid of us. As always, Turkey takes on the role of the policeman of the international powers."
"With its dogmatic logic, the Turkish state did not understand the situation"
Commander Koçgiri continued: “This war has been going on in an incomparable way for 40 years and the guerrilla spirit has always won. This 40-year war has shown that there is nothing the guerrillas cannot do. The state, shaped by a strictly dogmatic logic, is not in a position to grasp this. It trusts the technology it got from NATO and believes that this will get it out of the situation. But the state hadn't a clue about the strength of the newly structured guerrillas.”
"We have the power to vaccinate the whole world with hope"
Commander Koçgiri added: “I think the enemies have understood this in the last two months. The technological equipment was handed over to the Turkish state by NATO a long time ago and it has started to try it out. So we were always looking for ways to respond more effectively and keep the guerrilla war going. As PKK guerrillas, we are not limited to Kurdistan. Our philosophy and ideology are not limited to ourselves, we are a force that speaks to the whole world and inoculates the whole world with hope. We have learned a lot from our sacrifices and renewed ourselves at every new phase. We've changed the way we move and position ourselves. The consequences of this can be clearly seen in the results of the last two months and will become even more clearly visible."
"They have shown their failure by using chemical weapons"
Regarding the resistance in areas like Mamreşo, the YJA-Star commander pointed out that the Turkish army was forced to use chemical weapons because it was not being able to fight the guerrilla resistance. This is actually an admission of defeat, said the commander, adding: “In fact, every person who knows anything about war can see that the Turkish state has been defeated. To besiege a place with hundreds of soldiers and not be able to break the determination of these people and get results is a show of desperation. The use of chemical weapons is nothing more than an admission of defeat. Until the last moment we were in contact with the comrades and the last thing we heard was that chemical weapons were being used."
The strength of women guerrillas
Commander Pelşin Koçgiri said that the resistance is not limited to Mamreşo but is taking place in many areas.
She emphasized that women in particular have a special role to play and gave concrete examples of the strength of women from the guerrilla. She said: “The level that we have reached as guerrilla fighters has been evident during the invasion. A really tremendous force was unleashed, both in waging war, in the context of restructuring, in the implementation of the relevant discipline and in the extent of the resistance.”
Among many other examples, she cited the fallen comrades Ronahî and Melsa from the Cîlo yê Biçûk area.
"Final War of Women's Liberation"
The YJA Star Commander explained the importance of this war: “Currently, the history of women and the history of Kurdistan are very similar. Just as all patriarchal men are united against women, all system forces are united against Kurdistan. These attacks are the rape culture's final offensive. The Kurdistan region is exposed to rape. Rape is the most extreme form of violence against a woman's soul, emotions and body, and Kurdistan is also being raped. In the face of this attempted rape, there are three options: you remain silent, you participate and are complicit in the rape, or you fight against it. In this phase everyone has to determine their own position."
