We extend our deepest condolences to the founder of the philosophy of free life, leader Abdullah \u00d6calan, to the family of our comrade Zilan, and to our people.<\/p>\n<p>Zein Oso, known by her nom de guerre Zilan Kobani, was not merely a fighter; she was the product of a conscious patriotic upbringing and the embodiment of the philosophy of \u201cWoman, Life, Freedom.\u201d Intellectually, her character was shaped upon these foundations. In the darkest moments of the Kobani war, she became an ideological response to the brutality of (ISIS).<\/p>\n<p>Through her struggle, Comrade Zilan demonstrated that sacrifice is not limited to the battlefield; it is the offering of one\u2019s life for the freedom of other women, for the future of children, and for a democratic system. Through her sacrifice, she shattered the boundaries of fear and became a source of inspiration for thousands of Kurdish girls and women around the world.<\/p>\n<p>As a Kurdish woman, Comrade Zilan Kobani found her identity within the ranks of the Women\u2019s Protection Units (YPJ). She firmly believed that society cannot be free unless women are liberated. Her struggle against occupation was also a revolution against the patriarchal mindset that sought to break women\u2019s will.<\/p>\n<p>Comrade Zilan stood as a true embodiment of patriotism. To her, the homeland was not merely land\u2014it was culture, language, and existence. This bond granted her immense spiritual strength, such that no technological weapon could stand against her determination.<\/p>\n<p>Raised on the philosophy of Abdullah \u00d6calan, Comrade Zilan Kobani lives on today in every heart that struggles for freedom. She was a light illuminating the path of the women\u2019s revolution in the Middle East, and her intellectual strength has become a legacy followed by thousands of women today.<\/p>\n<p>Her sacrifice is embodied in the ranks of the Women\u2019s Protection Units (YPJ) and in the Rojava Revolution\u2014\u201cthe march toward victory.\u201d Her name has become a symbol of courage. This struggle and sacrifice laid the foundation for the victory of Kobani and continues, like a lamp, to light the path of freedom.<\/p>\n<p>On April 20, 2026, in Derik, Comrade Zilan Kobani joined the ranks of the immortal after a military incident.<\/p>\n<p>From this, we\u2014followers of this sacred legacy\u2014declare that our greatest form of revenge is to build the free life for which Comrade Zilan and thousands of martyrs sacrificed their lives. The struggle of Comrade Zilan Kobani is not merely a memory to us, but a call to action. In her person, we remember all the martyrs of the revolution with gratitude, and we vow to fulfill their dreams and aspirations for free leadership and a free Kurdistan.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23185 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-300x169.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22-390x220.jpeg 390w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-04-29-at-01.25.22.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Nom de guerre: Zilan Kobani<\/p>\n<p>Real name: Zein Oso<\/p>\n<p>Place of birth: Kobani<\/p>\n<p>Mother\u2019s name: Fidan<\/p>\n<p>Father\u2019s name: Othman<\/p>\n<p>Place and date of martyrdom: April 20, 2026 \u2013 Derik<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ji Bo B\u00eeran\u00eena \u015eeh\u00eed  Zilan Kobane\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/b2JFu6aXvIo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23186\" src=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1-300x225.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1.png 1890w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23187\" src=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2-300x225.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2.png 1890w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23188\" src=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3-200x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3-1024x1536.png 1024w, https:\/\/ypjrojava.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/3.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Freedom\u2019s history is written by the pens of heroes; through their blood and will, lights are born in the face of darkness.
