ISIS gangs target everyone in the places they occupy, whether armed or unarmed, slaughtering the people they capture with brutal methods. They then do not hesitate to publicise their massacres from their websites and on social media, claiming they perpetrate these acts in the name of ‘Islam’.

After 3 months of attacks on Kobanê the ISIS gangs have been forced back by the resistance of the YPG/YPJ fighters and are suffering heavy losses. The ISIS gangs are now resorting to firing mortars and artillery into civilian areas on an almost daily basis.

Two days ago 3 civilians, including a child, were killed when a mortar shell exploded in Kobanê. Two people were injured.

Fatma Mislim, whose 12-year-old son Mistefa Ebud and husband, 50-year-old Arab Ehmed Ebud were killed and whose 16-year-old daughter Emira Ebud was wounded, explained what happened. “We came from the village of Tewşo and moved in with our relatives. My husband took our animals across to Turkey so that they would be safe, but most of them were stolen, and he sold the rest for half price. While we were near the border Turkish soldiers fired gas at us so we came to the city. When the mortar landed I was at my neighbours’. I learned a shell had fallen on our house. The ISIS savages killed my 12-year-old son. My life is over.”

Fatma Mislim said: “Can human beings do this? They say they are Moslems. Do Moslems chop people’s heads off? This isn’t Islam.? My daughter is still in shock from and cannot sleep from seeing her father and brother in pools of blood.”

‘We will die honourably in our own land’

A friend of the Ebud family, Bılal Tırki, said: “This is not the work of Moslems, it is the work of savages. They bombard us with mortars, but they will not achieve their aims. We will resist to the end and die honourably in our own land. We will not leave even if our houses are destroyed by shells. We would rather die here than go to Turkey.”

‘ISIS gathers savages from different parts of the world…’

Kerho Kino, whose 8-year-old daughter Azize died in a mortar attack on 12 November, said: “What is ISIS, that attracts savages from all over the world, doing here? What do they want from us? My eight-year-old daughter was killed by one of their mortars. I’ve heard they call Kobanê ‘Jerusalem’. Jerusalem is not here, it’s in Israel. If they’re Islamists they should go there. How can Moslems kill other Moslems? We may die but we won’t leave Kobanê. How can we leave when so many of our young people have shed their blood here?”
