NEWS CENTER - Emphasizing the importance of Hesekê attacked by ISIS, PKK Leader Abdullah Öcalan warned that they will slaughter everyone if they enter Hesekê years ago.

 

ISIS launched an attack on Sinaa Prison in Hesekê, Northern and Eastern Syria, on January 20. Following the operation launched by the Anti-Terror Forces affiliated with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the detained ISIS members started to flee as the clashes started. In the statement of the SDF regarding the balance sheet of the clashes, it was stated that 175 ISIS members who attacked the prison were killed. SDF announced that 27 of its members lost their lives in the operation launched against ISIS members.

 

PKK Leader Abdullah Öcalan who warned about the possibility of these ISIS attacks years ago, said: "Hesekê is too important. If they enter Hesekê, they will slaugter everyone. If we lose Hesekê, the loss of lives will be our responsibility. There must be a self-defense system for Hesekê. Everyone should be in this self-defense system, Arabs, Assyrians too, not just Kurds."

 

WARNING FOR POSSIBLE MASSACRE

 

Underlining that Hesekê can not be left to the mercy of Free Syrian Army (FSA) and Baath Regime, Öcalan said: "If we don't do something about Hesekê, the fascist will do. All the patriots of Syria must unite and take place in this front otherwise people will face a slaughter. This is the only way to stop that fascist front. It will be on the basis of Democratic Syria."

 

A SECOND ISIS IS BEING PREPARED

 

In the meeting with Öcalan that took place on January 9, 2015, when he warned that the ISIS threat will not be over, Öcalan said: "Even though the ISIS in Syria is defeated, another ISIS is being prepared. This is why I suggested a National Pact (Misak-ı Milli) Commission to be established. Erdoğan's Arabism approach is very dangerous. Qatar wanted to give the control of of Afrin and Kobané to the Arabs and Ciziré to the South. It also has very dangerous plans on Mosul and its surroundings."
