Kurdistan People's Defence Forces

TO OUR PEOPLE AND THE PUBLIC

We, the HPG (People's Defence Force) Forces have had completely followed the decision of our movement on the cease-fire, since 13 August 2010. Despite of our decision and efforts, however, the Turkish state army continued its military operations, air-assaults, cannon attacks and incinerating of bushes.  Besides these assaults, the Turkish state army systematically placed hidden troops in many of the guerrilla areas for a search and ambushes to create an opportunity to find and carry out extensive military operations in order to destroy our Guerrilla forces.

 

The Turkish state army carried out intensive assaults against our forces to destroy, whome pulled back their forces on their bases after the announcement of the non-action process, as seen in the example of the attack carried in Hakkari case. Our Guerrillas, as a part of their right to legitimate defens, carried out retaliation actions in some areas against these systematic, fascist and cowardly assaults of the Turkish state army.

From now on, as a HPG, we announce to the democratic public to know that we will use our right to retaliate against any assault carried out against areas of the guerrillas by the Turkish state armed forces.
