“The people of France who had gathered to celebrate July 14 the French Revolution were targeted once again by terror attacks. We as the PYD General Assembly condemn this attack. We would like to express our condolences to the families and we wish a swift recovery to the wounded.

The terrorist attacks that have been plaguing the world continue in Rojava. YPG fighters are fighting against these terrorists in Kobanê and other regions.

We would like to express our condolences once more and we repeat our call to increase the fight against terrorism.”
