Cemîl Bayik, KCK Executive Council Co-Chair, speaking to Nûçe TV about Eastern Kurdistan (Rojhilat). ▪️ If the Iranian regime does not resolve the problems of the Kurds, it will collapse. ▪️ Kurds in Eastern Kurdistan must organize themselves and prepare. ▪️ If democratic integration does not succeed, and if war breaks out, they must be prepared for war.

Cemîl Bayik, KCK Executive Council Co-Chair, speaking to Nûçe TV about Western Kurdistan (Rojava) : ▪️ Mazloum Abdi said that he would not accept any position and would remain among his people. That statement was correct. ▪️ The current criticism is justified. We also criticize it because he should not have accepted the position. ▪️ Democratic integration does not mean surrendering everything to the state. ▪️ The Kurdish regions must have autonomy. ▪️ The Kurdistan Workers’ Party created and revived a spirit within Kurdish society in Rojava. ▪️ A historic opportunity for Kurdish unity has emerged.

🚨#BREAKING Reports of injuries among Damascus government forces following an explosion at a weapons depot belonging to the Damascus government in the Ayash area, west of Deir ez-Zor.

▪️ Turkey was unable to defeat the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK). ▪️ This step is necessary for Turkey even more than it is for the Kurds, because the situation of the Turkish state is not good. ▪️ The wars being waged around the world are putting Turkey under serious pressure. ▪️ If Leader Apo is not free, we will not lay down our arms and we will not go to Turkey. He personally oversees the peace agreement, and the first condition for completing this agreement must be his freedom. ▪️ Political prisoners have still not been released. ▪️ The prisons must be emptied. ▪️ The state has still not removed anyone from the terrorism list. ▪️ We still do not have direct contact with İmralı. ▪️ The law passed by the Turkish parliament does not meet our demands. ▪️ The Turkish state drafted this law largely according to its own interests, not according to our demands. Its main aim is to disarm and disperse the guerrillas. ▪️ Journalists and advisers should go and meet Leader Apo. ▪️ Certain politicians and academics should also go to İmralı. ▪️ The KCK Executive Council should also visit İmralı. We will go to İmralı as well. ▪️ The process needs to reach a conclusion quickly. ▪️ Leader Apo does not take any step without us. He consults us and seeks our views. ▪️ We do not trust the Turkish state and we approach it with suspicion.

Cemîl Bayik, KCK Executive Council Co-Chair, speaking to Nûçe TV about North Kurdistan (Bakur):

🚨#BREAKING 3 members of the General Security Forces were killed and several others were injured during a security operation carried out to arrest a wanted suspect in the city of Al-Sanamayn, in the Daraa countryside. The operation came after intelligence information indicated that an armed faction wanted to carry out attacks against Israeli forces inside Syrian territory. Clashes are still ongoing in the area.

The young man Masoud Hamo Rasho has joined the list of martyrs of the Kobanî Prison fire, succumbing to his severe injuries sustained in the fire, bringing the number of martyrs to ten heroes who chose death and confrontation over kneeling and surrender. His message was clear to all the oppressors: “We burned ourselves and we will not accept being taken to al-Jolani’s prisons, nor will we accept the imposition of Sharia and demands aimed at forcing us to submit.” #Kobani #Rojava

Arrest and Beating of a Kurdish Young Man at the Athriya Checkpoint While Traveling to Damascus for Medical Treatment The temporary Damascus government forces arrested the Kurdish young man Alan Mohammed Siraj Sheikhani, from the city of Qamishlo, on Sunday, September 6, 2026, while he was passing through the Athriya checkpoint on his way to Damascus to receive medical treatment due to his health condition.

Students in Qamishlo, Dêrik, and Rimelan: The Kurdish Language Is Our Right to Education Students reject reducing their mother tongue to three lessons per week, emphasizing that education in Kurdish is a linguistic, cultural, and historical right, not a privilege or a secondary subject. They demand full education in their mother tongue and constitutional recognition of Kurdish as a language, in order to preserve their identity, memory, and the rights of future generations.

Rivar Abdanan, spokesperson and member of the Executive Council of the Free Life Party of Kurdistan (PJAK), on X: “Jin, Jiyan, Azadî was a bullet fired into the mind of dictatorship. We Kurds, together with all other peoples of Iran, will stand with ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadî’ against enemies of society, misogyny, environmental destruction, patriarchal nationalism and domination. Until the Islamic Republic is replaced and a democratic Iran and a self-governing Kurdistan are established, we will continue the path of Jina and ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadî.’” @KurdishFrontReports
