Kurds and Cypriots Protest in Support of Rojava

Kurds and Cypriot allies took to the streets of Nicosia to demonstrate their support for the Kurdish people of Rojava (northeastern Syria) against attacks by the Damascus regime. The march began at the Ministry of Interior, passed by the House of Europe where a delegation from the local PYD committee was received, and ended at the House of Representatives. Demonstrators chanted slogans such as “Woman, Life, Freedom” and “Long Live the Freedom of Rojava,” condemning the actions of the al-Jolani regime and Erdogan. They are calling for international condemnation and the cessation of financial aid to the Syrian Transitional Government. Only the Citizens' Movement-Ecologists participated from the Cypriot parties, expressing their solidarity with banners.
