Finally watched the new @netflix series ‘3 Body Problem @3body ’ A nice show indeed. Here is some two scenes feature #Kurdish war hero Leyla Ariç, portraying a #YPJ fighter who defeated ISIS in #Kobane , Raqqah and elsewhere netflix.com/title/81024821
Ongoing debate in Turkey centers on why a Kurd is included among 3 individuals recognized for saving the world. But, globally, Kurds are esteemed for their courageous battle against ISIS, particularly legendary role of Kurdish women, which has served as an inspiration worldwide.

How did the Kurds do in the municipal elections? Pro-Kurdish Dem Party did pretty well in the elections and gained 3 greater city municipalities (regional capital Diyarbakir, Mardin and Van)
Peoples’ Peace and Equality Party (Dem Party) won 7 (to 9) provinces: Batman, Agri, Tunceli, Hakkari, Mus, Igdir, Siirt. Dem Party claims it’s won Sirnak and Bitlis provinces but ruling AKP did some irregularities there that affected outcome of elections bianet.org/haber/turkey-l…

HDP bu seçimlerin en büyük kaybedenlerinden biri. HDP, Yeşil Sol % 8.81 oy alarak 2018’deki % 11.70 oy oranından % 2.89 daha az oy aldı. 67 olan milletvekili sayısı da 62’ye düştü
HDP hiç bir şehirde oy arttıramadığı gibi partinin 81 ildeki oy oranı düşmüş ve bu düşüş yurtdışı ve gümrük kapılarındaki oy oranlarında da görünüyor. HDP milletvekili sayısını arttırdığı Bitlis, Hakkari, Van ve bu sene 1 vekillik kazandığı Erzurum’da bile oy kaybı yaşamış!

I have no words to write to this tweet as I speechless after receiving this video from Syria 😔
To clarify: The girl was very very sick—not dead. Mother says dead. In Kurdish the Arabic term ‘janaza’ is also used in the meaning of ‘nearly dead’ Woman’s husband is missing and her daughter is dying. The context was lost in the translation. Video is genuine! Report by K24 TV
