No more stop-gap solutions in northeast Syria. Time to solve the whole problem and make the Kurdish issue a matter of democratic politics on both sides of the border. www.kurdishpeace.org/research/con...

SDF Commander-in-Chief Gen. Mazlum Abdi says the Coalition is assisting SDF w/ evacuations from Shahba and working to deescalate w/ Turkey over Manbij. If those efforts can get IDPs safety to NES and well cared for while there, and prevent Turkish/SNA advances, that’s a good sign for stability.

The Women’s House, Manbij, 2021. These courageous women suffered under ISIS, but didn’t give up. They stepped up to lead as soon as SDF & Coalition forces liberated their city. They were so proud of their work educating women on their new rights and organizing to advance them.
