TO THE PRESS AND PUBLIC

1-On 6 December at around 18:30 hour, our guerrillas carried out an action against the GireHisen Military station, which carries out road controls on the Silk Road, in the district of Nusaybin/Mardin . While the number of killed and wounded enemy soldiers couldn’t be able to clarified, the building of the military station left in fire and ambulances came to the scene of the action 20 minutes later.

2-As everybody followed, for days now, the reports given out by the Special Turkish Warfare Media that there has been a military operation launched by the occupier Turkish state army in the Region of Amanos and as a result ‘a great blow has been hit’ on our guerrillas. And, as a result, the reports claimed that 13 of our guerrillas have been martyred and 5 of others have been taken as prisoners. These reports belong to the Turkish Special Warfare Media and, unfortunately by the international media without making a search from different sources, have been circulated for days both in the region and internationally.

The HPG H.Q. have made statements in regard to the lies and said that ‘’ the occupier Turkish state army and its most powerful Special Warfare pro-Media, have been taken great blows from the Revolutionary Operations carried out by our Guerrillas through the year 2012. And, they couldn’t be able to hide this reality from neither our people nor from the general public. The occupier Turkish state army, who couldn’t be able to taken any success despite the military technics it has, and also considering the present weather conditions, served such lie reports in order to earn psychological upper handand aimed to destroy the moral of our people.

The said military operations has been launched and covered  the rural areas of Dortyol, Iskenderun and Osmaniye, yet there is no success made as they claimed. They have been amused by their  own lies.

The statement said, ‘ Our people should not consider the reports circulated by the Special Warfare Media, and wait for the statements giving out by us about the incidents and developments.’
