Ronahî: Today forty-nine fighters of the Syrian Democratic Forces who were held by the interim government have been released.

Ronahî: The last release took place on the twenty-sixth of June, but that day only two people were freed, Diyar Hisên Mehmûd and Hesen Newaf. According to the information, a number of fighters are still held by the interim government.

Kamîran: So from two people to forty-nine people — this is a much bigger step than before.

Ronahî: Yes. And some of those released today spoke about the conditions of detention and their transfers between several prisons. They said they had been subjected to torture.

Ronahî: Şahîn Osman said he had been held in the prisons of Al-Ra'i and Al-Hasiyeh, and that Turkish intelligence had detained him in Jarablus in November two thousand twenty-four while he was heading towards Manbij.

Kamîran: These are the accounts of the detainees themselves; we cannot say they have been confirmed by an independent body, and there is no response from the interim government in this information.

Kamîran: From the prisons to Kobanê — there too today a prison incident was on the agenda.

Ronahî: The adviser to the Syrian Presidency, Mezlûm Ebdî, met today in Kobanê with the families of those who lost their life in the incident of the twelfth of September at Kobanê prison.

Ronahî: Ebdî listened to the families' demands and announced that a special investigation committee has been formed to establish the truth of the incident.

Kamîran: Yet from this information we still do not know what really happened inside the prison — that is what the committee is looking for.

Ronahî: That is right; neither the number nor the cause of the incident has been specified in the reports. The same day in Kobanê Ebdî also met with the commander of the Internal Security Forces of Aleppo province, Mihemed Ebdulxenî; there security, protection of residents and the mechanisms of the integration process were discussed.

Ronahî: Another meeting was also held with doctors and health officials, on the state of the health sector and the legal situation of doctors who graduated from the University of Rojava.

Kamîran: Yesterday we also spoke about protests over the Kurdish language in schools. Today, in which areas are there actions?

Ronahî: In Qamişlo, Dêrik, Rimêlan, Amûdê and Hesekê. The interim government's Ministry of Education decision limits the Kurdish language to three lessons per week, and actions against it continue.

Ronahî: In Qamişlo, Kongra Star and pupils of a primary school gave statements in front of the school. In the village of Tobiz in Amûdê, pupils and families also gathered in front of the school and a statement was read by the pupil Maya Ebdulrehîm.

Kamîran: And the teachers themselves have also joined this, not only families and pupils.

Ronahî: Yes. In Hesekê, teachers of scientific subjects in Kurdish — mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and general sciences — gave a statement and said they do not accept the decision. The statement was read by teachers Cemila Hito and Malva Xelef.

Ronahî: Across eastern Kurdistan today a general strike began; shops, markets and public places were closed. The reason is the fourth anniversary of Jîna Emînî losing her life and the start of the Jin, Jiyan, Azadî uprising.

Ronahî: According to reports, Iranian security forces and the Revolutionary Guards have been heavily deployed in the cities.

Kamîran: Yesterday we mentioned the anniversary as a future event; today its impact is visible on the streets.

Ronahî: Jîna Emînî's father, Emced Emînî, addressed a message to the people and thanked those who closed shops and markets. Her mother, Mujgan Îftixarî, also published a message on social media saying she believes that one day justice will come.

Ronahî: The co-chair of the Kurdistan Free Life Party, Emîr Kerîmî, also thanked the people's participation in the strike with a video message, and the Platform of Women of eastern Kurdistan called for continuing and strengthening the struggle.

Kamîran: And in Silêmaniyê this time a film with the same name was awarded, was it not?

Ronahî: Yes, at the sixth Sulaymaniyah International Film Festival the award for best documentary went to the film Jin Jiyan Azadî. The film was made by Soran Îbrahîmî and its characters are real people, not actors.

Kamîran: Now a piece of news linked to a judicial demand.

Ronahî: The family of Samî Şêxmûs Hesso, a fighter of the Hesekê Brigade known as Sîpan Huznî, addressed a written statement to judicial and security institutions and demanded that the full truth of his abduction and killing be clarified.

Ronahî: According to the statement, he was abducted from his home on the tenth of September and later his body was found with a bullet wound. The family wants all those involved to be brought to trial.

Kamîran: From this information it is not clear whether an investigation has been opened or not — so far only the family's voice is heard.

Kamîran: And finally, a message from İmralı.

Ronahî: The delegation of the Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party — Pervîn Buldan, Mîdhet Sancar and Ozgur Faîk Erol — met Abdullah Ocalan on the thirteenth of September. After the meeting the delegation released his assessments on the peace process.

Ronahî: In those assessments Ocalan said that provocations in Rojava must be stopped immediately.

Kamîran: The message is short, but it aligns with today's Rojava agenda — from the Kobanê prison to the Kurdish-language decision.
