| Video report at the link ERBIL – Since 2012, the KRG’s Peshmerga forces have been training thousands of Syrian Kurds –known as ‘Peshmerga of Rojava’– to send them to Syria. “They don’t want to fight Kurds, they only want to fight ISIS,” Major General Bahjat Taymas from the Kurdish Zerevani Peshmerga forces told ARA News. The Kurdish Zerevani forces that belong to the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraqi Kurdistan took the responsibility of training Syrian Kurds. “It started with one battalion. The goal was to send them to Rojava [Kurdish areas of Syria], but until now they couldn’t get there,” Taymas said. Last Friday, a ceremony was held in Duhok to celebrate the four-year anniversary of the establishment of the Syrian Kurdish Sun Brigades that are part of the Peshmerga forces and fight ISIS in Iraqi Kurdistan. |
