Kongreya Star, a women's federation in Rojava, has organized a press conference in Qamishli  to condemn the Turkish attacks and to remind that the first victims of a conflict are children and the elderly.   Syria has again captured the attention of the international media due to the death of the ISIS leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, yesterday, October 27.

There are several Russian armored vehicles with the presence of Kurdish security forces passing through it.   We are driving between the city of Al-Darbasiyah and the predominantly Kurdish city of Ras al-Ayn (also known as Serê Kaniyê in Kurdish) that was attacked by Turkish army. The flag of Russia: white, blue and red, flutters on the cars.

It is October 20, 2019. It has been 11 days since Turkey launched the offensive called "Operation Peace Spring", on October 9, on the Turkish-Syrian border.   "Kurdish cities have been bombed without respecting civilians, children or journalists," says Syrian journalist Massud Hamid, who writes these notes from Tall Tamr, a small town in northeastern Syria 30 kilometers from Ras-al-Ayn (Serê Kaniyê in Kurdish).

It is October 17, 2019 and we are driving near the Turkish-Syrian border. Turkey launched the "Operation Peace Spring" offensive a week ago.
