To Our People and the General Public
We strongly condemn and denounce the massacre being carried out against the Druze people, and we reaffirm our solidarity with the women and civilians affected. Once again, the extremist jihadist groups, under the leadership of the Damascus government, have targeted innocent civilians. This violence is systematic and directed against the Druze community. The massacres and brutal assaults on women are a direct threat to human dignity and women’s freedom.
We, the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), firmly condemn these heinous attacks. The targeting and abduction of women, children, and civilians is incompatible with any moral or human principle. Such acts are enemies of diversity, the freedom of peoples, and the very existence of women. The Druze people are not alone. As women fighters, we are fully prepared to stand against any aggression targeting the will of the people, the right to life, and the belief in freedom.
If called upon, we are ready to confront all dark forces that target women. In order to protect Druze women and civilians, we will shoulder all responsibilities placed upon us without hesitation. As the Women’s Protection Units, standing against attacks on women and oppressed peoples wherever they may be is not only our duty — it is the foundation of our existence.
Those responsible for the massacres committed against Druze women must be held accountable, the perpetrators must be prosecuted, and justice must be served. The struggle for the brotherhood of peoples, women’s freedom, and interfaith coexistence must not be allowed to take even a single step backward. We stand with the Druze people. Women will never be silent, and they will never bow their heads.
Women, Life, Freedom.
