Information

Kurdish female fighter have lost so many of their friends who follow them once dead, carrying their flags. They are the best military fighters supported by the dead and the men who stand up with them. Where are they now? Quote from the Kurdish Project Org: "YPG is an acronym whose translation means People's Protection Units. It is the home grown defense forces of the Kurdish area of Syria. It emerged after the Civil War erupted in Syria and started to spill over into Syrian Kurdistan, now known as Rojava, or Western Kurdistan."
