November 2013, Rojava / Syria: Our first photo shows a People’s Protection Unit (YPG) fighter on the outskirts of the town of Tirbespiye, taking up her position while defending her town from attacks by the jihadists of the al-Nusra Front and ISIS:

YPG women fighters holding their regular meeting before joining the front line.

Before leaving to join the front line, YPG groups sing and dance together to keep up morale – and they did just that before they left for the “Liberation Operation of Tirbespiye Villages.”

Her biji,
You’re brave, honorable; you are the flowers that beautify the Kurdish mountains, valleys and blankets our fields. You are making the history as we speak by defending our honor, soil and land. No other movements that I have read, heard or remember have contributed so much towards their land and people.
Rodi, thank you for sharing these beautiful photos.
