“We will turn the 21st century into a century of women’s freedom,” said the statement released by the Southern Kurdistan Women's Front to mark the second anniversary of the “Jin, Jiyan, Azadi” uprising.

News Center- The Southern Kurdistan Women’s Front has released a written statement to mark the second anniversary of the “Jin, Jiyan, Azadi” uprising that sparked in Iran and Rojhilat Kurdistan following the killing of Jina Mahsa Amini by Iran’s so-called “morality police” in Tehran.

“Women always struggle against the injustice of the patriarchal system, its policies and mindset that promote slavery,” the statement said. “In the history of this struggle, women's voices were silenced by tyrannical governments. Despite all the oppression and obstacles, the voice of women for freedom shook the whole world. The women and people of Eastern Kurdistan and Iran never bow to the despotic Iranian regime.

‘We vow to strengthen the struggle’

“Women always lead revolutions all around the world. They also led the ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ uprising in Eastern Kurdistan and Iran. Women have the power to canalize their societies into a revolution. We condemn the executions of women and young people by the Iranian regime and call on all people demanding freedom all around the world not to remain silent against executions in Iran and take a serious stand. As the Southern Kurdistan Women's Front, we vow to strengthen women’s struggle for freedom and to turn the 21st century into a century of women’s freedom.”
