Kamîran: We begin with the return to Serêkaniyê. The convoy that had been postponed is moving today.

Ronahî: Three hundred and eighty-one families living at Serêkaniyê Camp are returning today to the countryside of Serêkaniyê, Til Temir and Zirgan. Since yesterday the families have been packing their belongings and furniture. Emgîn Ferhan from the village of Mrîkîs said, "We spent painful days in the camps."

Ronahî: But the road is not open. According to Mahmûd Cemîl, spokesperson for the Serêkaniyê Displaced Persons Committee, on the eighth of October Turkish forces prevented the fourth convoy from entering the villages of Menax, Feysaliyê, Derbo, Kinêhir, Seîd and Hecac.

Ronahî: The latest news today is that north of Til Temir the Turkish army has blocked the only road between Menax and Kinêhir with earthen barriers. According to local sources, residents have been prevented from reaching their homes and fields. This is only the statement of local sources and the committee. No statement from the Turkish side has appeared in the news.

Kamîran: So Menax and Kinêhir appear twice before us: the fourth convoy could not enter, and now the road between them is blocked.

Ronahî: In the Kurdistan Region, in the Koyeyê district of Erbil province, two drones attacked Azadî Camp. Previously, families of members of the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran stayed at this camp.

Ronahî: Sources disagree on who carried out the attack. One source says it was the Iranian regime. Another source says the drones were unidentified and smoke was rising from the targeted location. So far, the damage from the attack is unknown.

Kamîran: For Koyeyê, is this a one-time attack, or something that keeps happening?

Ronahî: According to the same source, since the war between the United States and Israel with Iran began, dozens of drone and missile attacks have been carried out around Koyeyê.

Kamîran: We now return to Hesekê. There is a new security order that directly affects daily life in the city.

Ronahî: The Internal Security Administration of Hesekê has banned carrying weapons and moving openly with weapons inside the city. Firing weapons is also banned for any reason. According to the order, the weapons of those who break the rule will be confiscated and they will be held accountable under the law.

Ronahî: On the same day, figures from the Armenian and Syriac communities in Hesekê called for the preservation of internal peace. According to the report, protests that began in the Xiweyran neighbourhood involved property destruction and harsh statements. Yet the announcement of the order did not link these two things.

Kamîran: Therefore, we can only say that both events took place in the same city and at the same time. The direct reason for the order was not stated.

Kamîran: Yesterday was a day of remembrance. In fact these are two events, but their date is the same: the twelfth of October, two years apart.

Ronahî: Hevrîn Xelef, general secretary of the Syria Future Party, lost her life on the twelfth of October, two thousand and nineteen, on the international road at Emwe Çar. This occurred during the Turkish operation on Serêkaniyê and Girê Spî.

Ronahî: According to the Syrian Democratic Council, those who carried it out were fighters from groups linked to Turkey. On the seventh anniversary the council called for accountability. In Dêrik a memorial ceremony was also held for her and Ferhad Remezan with the participation of hundreds of people. Co-chair of the party Nisrîn Doko spoke there.

Ronahî: Two years before that, on the same day, journalists Dilîşan Îbiş and Hogir Mihemed lost their lives on the road between Hesekê and Dêrazor. This happened in the explosion of a vehicle loaded with explosives linked to ISIS. They were there during the Syrian Democratic Forces campaign in the countryside of Dêrazor. They were also remembered in Qamişlo and Kobanê.

Kamîran: Therefore, the name Serêkaniyê appears twice today: once in the remembrance, and once in the return convoy.

Ronahî: In Erbil the Middle East Forum two thousand and twenty-six has begun. The forum was organised by the Middle East Research Institute, and on the first day there were six sessions.

Ronahî: Kurdish politician Îlham Ehmed said there that after the fall of the Assad regime and the completion of the Syrian Democratic Forces' integration into the government army, the country has entered a new phase. According to her, this integration strengthened stability, but set back the rights of women and Kurds.

Kamîran: This is not her only statement on women. Another report today also addresses the same issue.

Ronahî: Yes. According to that report, after fourteen years Syrian women are being systematically excluded from politics, the economy, education and security. The report says women are fighting against this in order to preserve their gains.
