As Arab, Kurd, Assyrian and Turkmen peoples, we must stand united against this aggression. We invite our youth and young women to unite around the Syrian Democratic Forces.
In this context, we declare a general mobilisation and call on our people to be on alert at all times. We also call on all our institutions to be at work on full alert and each one of them must work as a crisis desk and be prepared for the challenges posed by this attack. We also call on the international community; Stop this aggression. Otherwise, this will be a new form of ISI terrorism that will lead to major humanitarian disasters, pose a threat to Syria and have srious reginal and global consequences."
