Fedai – Hazim Ali El Nofel
Our comrade Fedai Kobanê was born in Jazaa in northern Syria. He got to know the Kurdish liberation movement in the course of the Rojava revolution. At that time, large sections of the Syrian population lived under the regime of Islamist groups that misused religion for their own purposes. Fedai joined the Kurdish movement based on Abdullah Öcalan's ideology of free coexistence between peoples and fought against ISIS during the most difficult time. He suffered a serious wound in the process, which further strengthened his will to fight. In 2016 he went to the mountains of Kurdistan. It was difficult for him to get used to his new living conditions at first. However, he managed to overcome his difficulties. The collective life and cooperative relationships of the guerrilla made a great impression on him and he wanted to be a part of it. He completed an ideological training and deepened his military knowledge, which he had already gained in Rojava. After three years in Gare, he went to Avaşîn in 2019. There he took part in numerous actions against the enemy. During last year's military operation, he fought both in a mobile unit and in the guerrilla's underground defenses. On 18 April, he fell in close combat against the Turkish invaders in the Werxelê resistance area.
We extend our condolences to the esteemed patriotic family of our martyred comrade, our Arab people and the people of Kurdistan.
Our comrade Fedai was a true hero that the Arab and Kurdish people can take as an example. He was deeply convinced that peoples can liberate themselves based on the Apoist paradigm. He took a stand against the brutal occupation by the Turkish state and made a major contribution to the liberation struggle of the Kurdish people. Heval Fedai is a prominent exponent of socialist ideology, an internationalist attitude and apoist militancy. We call on all Arab and Kurdish youths to follow Şehîd Fedai as an example and to expand our guerrilla army by joining them.
