"This crime (Jendo's Assassination), coincides with the heroic resistance of our forces in the face of terror (Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... IS/ISIS), especially in the villages located around the al-Khabur area and the town of Tel Temir, claiming the lives of dozens of heroes," the YPG leadership added. The YPG leadership emphasized that this crime will not go unpunished, pointing out that a special committee was formed to investigate the liquidation operation in order to uncover the truth and bring the perpetrators to justice. The leader of the Syriac Union Party, Hanna Malki, told ARA News: "We are highly concerned about the mass displacements taking place in the province of Hasakah. The IS gunnies and al-Qaeda bully boyz are displacing civilians on the basis of ethnic and religious identities." The Haras al-Khabur force and the Syriac Military Council are part of a joint force called for by the Kurdish YPG fighters to combat IS bully boyz in the countryside of the town of Tel Temir in the province of Hasakah. |
