Announcement📢 Supporting the Keska Sora Orphanage in Kobani – A call for humanitarian support

11 Upvotes

This is a post to highlight the humanitarian work being carried out by the Free Women’s Foundation in Rojava. They are currently providing essential support for women and children in the region, including the operation of the Keska Sora Orphanage in Kobani, which offers a safe home, education, and care for children orphaned by conflict.

While there are many different perspectives on the political and ideological situation in the region, this is an appeal strictly based on humanitarian grounds. This effort is focused solely on the welfare of vulnerable children who are in need of basic necessities and stability.

How to help:

Donations made through WJAS Germany go directly toward providing food, education, and healthcare for these children. Every contribution, regardless of size, provides tangible support for those in the orphanage.

Learn more and donate here: https://wjas.org/en/home-2/

Thank you for your time and for considering the needs of these children.

Ask Kurds 🤔 Zankoline 😥😥😥

3 Upvotes

So I am an international student and my results arrived 1 week ago etc…

But now my results are at the ministry of education, and I don’t know what they’re doing to it while my school tells me to just wait!

But I don’t think I’ll hear back from them soon and zankoline will open very soon, will I miss it?

If my results aren’t ready can I miss out on uni this year?

Plz can someone tell me when zankoline opens before I die of anxiety 😥

I’ve asked this before but my fellow Kurds never give me a clear answer 😭

Quote on quote: “It is not acceptable to not work in Parliament and get paid 7 million monthly, while a krêkar working from day to night might not even get 25,000 dinars. Yes, I haven’t received a salary for the last seven months, and I was even told to complete an account on the 31st of the month so that I would receive my past months’ salaries. I don’t think it is my right to accept money while not working in Parliament or not having a role in making laws.”

Ask Kurds 🤔 Current Rojava conflict

Upvotes

Hello, beautiful Kurdish community,
What do you think about the latest developments? Am I the only one who feels deeply frustrated because of the major concessions that have been made? I am honestly very surprised and shocked by what happened, and my heart is broken. How can a force like this lose against a group of terrorists and criminals, while it was able to hold out in Afrin for months, and even in the Ashrafiyah for longer than they managed to?
Personally, I left Syria when I was only 11 years old, and I had already experienced more than enough fear. I remember when ISIS advanced and reached Tal Hamis. They were only a few kilometers away from reaching us. But then the West intervened, and I have always had a lot of respect and love for this army (YBG), especially because of how they defended us. Several of my cousins fought alongside them and were killed.
I have always dreamed of seeing Kurdistan one day. To be honest, the political developments I have witnessed in Iran and Syria gave me a lot of hope and optimism. I also realized that I knew very little about our own story and history, and that motivated me to learn much more about Kurdish history and politics. Over the past year, I have become much more interested in politics and history, and I have been following political developments closely ever since.
But is what happened in the last few days a betrayal, or is there something behind it that nobody knows about? The situation and the news are very unclear and confusing.
What do you guys think?

Opinion 🔥 What dangerous situation is the KRG facing right now?

4 Upvotes

The Apoist clique sold out Rojava. The wannabe general is now an advisor to the Syrian Jihadi president. The PKK has essentially turned into a Sidehoe for Turkey.
My question is: How does all of this affect the KRG? If the PKK stops conducting military actions, Turkey no longer has a reason to maintain its military presence in the KRG, right? Or do you think the situation is actually more dangerous now, and there will be an attempt to pressure or undermine the KRG from all sides?
