Resistance grows across Diyarbakir and Cizre
DIYARBAKIR (DIHA) - Thousands across Diyarbakir are spreading the resistance in response to the atrocity perpetrated by Turkish forces against the people in the Kurdish region.
In the central Bağlar district where two youths, Şerdıl Cengiz (21) and Şiyar Salman (18), were killed earlier today, people continue resisting at barricades on every street where they also light big fires. While people in their houses are also joining the protests by making noises that resound throughout streets together with slogans, police and special operation teams are firing random tear gas, unable to enter the areas of protests due to barricades laid on all streets across the district.
As resistance also continues in Ofis and Koşuyolu area, people have laid barricades on streets in Huzurevleri neighborhood of Kayapınar district as well, where police keep firing tear gas amid an intense helicopter activity.
