NEWS CENTER - The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria made a statment on the 10th anniversary of Kobani. “We urge all free peoples, states, and human rights and humanitarian organizations to deter the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries and to actively prevent any further aggression against the city of Kobani, which valiantly defeated the terrorist organization ISIS," reads. 

The Autonomous Administration for North and East Syria made a statement on the 10th anniversary of the liberation of Kobani from ISIS. 
 
The Autonomous Administration's statement on the importance of the Kobani resistance and its effects reads: "Today, January 26th, marks the tenth anniversary of the victory of the Kobani resistance against the terrorist organization ISIS. On this occasion, we commemorate all our martyrs from the People’s Protection Units (YPG) and the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), as well as all volunteers from across Kurdistan regions and the globe who joined Kobani the Citadel of Resistance. They displayed extraordinary heroism and self-sacrifice in their struggle against the terrorist organization ISIS.
 
No doubt that the resistance in Kobani exemplified the unwavering free will and determination to achieve victory against the world’s most powerful terrorist power. Despite facing a brutal siege by this terrorist organization, and despite the immense challenges and resource limitations, the people of Kobani emerged victorious. This victory reaffirmed the profound truth that unwavering determination is the most potent weapon in the face of any obstacle. It demonstrated to the world that the will to resist is the cornerstone of victory, and through this unwavering will, the people of Kobani achieved their historic victory.
 
The victory in Kobani marked a crucial turning point in the defeat of the terrorist organization ISIS. It signified the beginning of the end of ISIS’s territorial expansion, culminating in their eventual defeat across the entirety of Syrian geography. Had the resistance in Kobani not succeeded, ISIS would have continued to pose a grave and imminent threat to the entire world. It is undeniable that the victory in Kobani was not merely a local triumph but a global victory, as it paved the way for the world to eradicate one of the most dangerous terrorist organizations in human history.
 
The unwavering will and resolute resistance of the YPG and YPJ fighters in Kobani served as an inspiration for our forces, instilling in them the determination and resolve to liberate the remainder of Syria from ISIS terrorism. Their valiant resistance and ultimate victory formed the bedrock upon which our forces launched successive campaigns to liberate Syrian territories under ISIS control, including their so-called capital, Raqqa, ultimately leading to their final defeat in Al-Baghouz.
 
The resistance of Kobani and its resounding victory ten years ago paved the way for the establishment of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and served as a strategic turning point in forging alliances with numerous regional and international forces and entities, most notably the international coalition forces. These forces played a crucial role alongside our own in defeating the terrorist organization, particularly in securing the victory in Kobani, and this effort is highly respected and appreciated by us and by all our people.
 
Today, on the tenth anniversary of this momentous victory, as we commemorate this cherished triumph alongside the free world, Kobani the Citadel of Resistance faces relentless and brutal attacks by the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries. These attacks are repeated copy of those perpetrated by the terrorist organization ISIS, differing only in name, but the ultimate objective remains the same: to extinguish the flame of freedom in Kobani and silence the voice of its resistance, which once fascinated the world.
 
On this occasion, we urge all free peoples, states, and human rights and humanitarian organizations to deter the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries and to actively prevent any further aggression against the city of Kobani, which valiantly defeated the terrorist organization ISIS.
 
Should the Turkish occupation launch any aggression against Kobani, we unequivocally declare that we will engage in a more resolute and determined resistance than that demonstrated against the terrorist organization ISIS in 2014 and 2015. The Syrian Democratic Forces are unwavering in their commitment to protecting Kobani and its people from all forms of attack, regardless of the source. We are prepared to make significant sacrifices to safeguard this vital city.
 
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our fighters and our people on this momentous anniversary. Today, we stand more resolute than ever in our determination to protect and defend our territories. We will not hesitate to escalate our resistance against all forms of aggression, regardless of the cost."
