Ibrahim Haftarro, Head of the Afrin Civic Assembly in Qamishli, stated:
During the attack on Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafiyah, all kinds of heavy weapons were used, even though 98% of Sheikh Maqsoud’s residents are Kurds.
2,700 Kurds have been displaced from Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafiyah, all of them Kurdish.
The exact number of martyrs is not confirmed, but it is in the hundreds.
3,000 to 4,000 Kurdish families from Afrin who had settled in Tabqa and Deir Hafer were displaced again.
Approximately 500,000 people were living in Sheikh Maqsoud.
150,000 displaced people are Afrin residents alone.
More than 200,000 displaced persons from Kobane, Afrin, and Serekaniye are currently in Qamishli and Hasakah.
In one house in Sheikh Maqsoud, 7 members of a single family were killed together, in addition to the killing of hundreds of others.
In Kobane, 10 members of one family were killed together.
This is because they believe Kurdish blood, homes, and lives are permissible (halal to violate).
Every Afrin family has been displaced five times:
In 2013, families were displaced from Aleppo to Afrin.
In 2018, from Afrin to the Shahba region.
In 2024, from Shahba to Tabqa.
In 2026, from Tabqa to Qamishli and Derik.
The fate of the people of Afrin has been repeated displacement, five times, and each time during the cold winter season.
Afrin is 98% Kurdish, with a population of nearly 900,000 people or more.
Afrin is under the control of Turkey-backed groups, including Hamshat and Amshat factions.
