BEHDINAN – HPG Press Center stated the following regarding the 4 martyred guerrillas:
“The Kurdish people are struggling relentlessly to tear the shroud of genocide that has been tried to be put on them for a hundred years, to rise up, to have their existence accepted and to live freely. The Kurdish people, who managed to survive by sacrificing hundreds of thousands of martyrs, suffering unprecedented pains and showing examples of historical resistance, embarked on the struggle to preserve their existence and gain their freedom on the basis of the freedom march that Leader Apo started fifty years ago. The sworn enemy of the Kurdish people, the fascist Turkish state, in 2022, the centennial of this genocidal policy, aimed to occupy the Media Defense Areas, weaken and liquidate the Kurdistan Freedom Movement, and completely destroy the Kurdish people’s hope for freedom. However, the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla developed an epic resistance process by displaying an unprecedented self-sacrifice stance. He succeeded in stopping the enemy and disrupting their plans. Our heroic martyrs, who are the most beautiful sons of our people, have developed this resistance sacrificingly, struggled without reckoning, devoted their entire lives to helping our people have a free future, and pioneered it. Our comrades Êrîş, Partizan, Şaho and Baran, who are the Apoist martyr militants and distinguished heroes of this process, have knitted the historical resistance by knot and joined the caravan of martyrs by fighting valiantly.
We commemorate all our martyrs with respect and gratitude in the person of our comrades Êrîş, Partizan, Şaho and Baran, who went down in history by protecting our honor, our lands and our free future, and we reiterate our commitment to their memory. We extend our condolences to the precious families of our heroic martyrs who developed the national resistance from Gever to Agirî, from Rewanser to Hezex, and to all our people of Kurdistan.

ÊRÎŞ AVENT GEVER
Our party, the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle under the leadership of the PKK, has developed important revolutions in Kurdistan society, and has revealed the reality of the resisting people by tearing up the dead soil that the enemy has laid on them for decades. Since the beginning of our freedom struggle, our people have taken their place with great enthusiasm and enthusiasm, and they have fulfilled their patriotic duty by recruiting their most precious sons to the guerrilla ranks. Many of our comrades who joined the guerrilla ranks from Gever became self-defeating commanders and left their mark on the freedom struggle of our people.
Our comrade Êrîş was born in a patriotic family where such a deep-rooted tradition is dominant. As soon as his family was born, our legendary commander Mahsum Korkmaz saw the name of Comrade Êrîş as appropriate. Thus, the historical resistance developed in the mountains of Kurdistan was embraced by our people, and the names of the heroes of this resistance continued to be kept alive in new generations. Comrade Êrîş admired our Party and the guerrilla since his childhood, with the weight of his name, and dreamed of the day he would join the guerrilla. After our uncle’s son Erîş Avent Gever (Cengiz Özek) joined the guerrilla ranks in 2009, our comrade Êrîş was also deeply affected and joined the guerrilla ranks.
Our comrade Êrîş, who received his first training in the guerrilla in the Zagros, learned the basics of mountain and guerrilla life and quickly became involved in practical work. He made his first guerrilla practice in the field of Metîna and had the opportunity to develop himself militarily and ideologically. Our comrade, who has always had a self-sacrificing participation since joining the guerrilla ranks, has been in a continuous development by training himself more and more every day. After the martyrdom of our comrade Erîş Avent Gever (Cengiz Özek), who fired the starting cartridge of our Revolutionary People’s War in 2012 and took action in Kayseri together with our comrade Andok Farqîn (Ramazan Yılmaz), our comrade Êrîş was also involved in the Hêzên Taybet efforts, both for being the successor of Comrade Êrîş Avent and concentrating on self-sacrifice. had the opportunity to deepen it further. Hêzên Taybet came to the forefront with her hardworking, warm-blooded and humble personality. He actively participated in the trainings to deepen himself in the Leadership ideology, shared his own concentration with his comrades and contributed to the better concentration of his comrades with the discussions he conducted. He has always focused on keeping the memory of Comrade Erîş Avent Gever alive and taking the revenge of all our martyrs in his person, and has repeatedly suggested to take a self-deprecating action against the Turkish state, for which he was very angry. Comrade Êrîş, an exemplary militant with his simplicity and honest participation, stayed with Comrade Şervan Varto for a long time, and took part in his journey to truth. After the martyrdom of our comrade Şervan, his anger towards the enemy increased even more. Our comrade, who succeeded in making this anger the basis of more struggle, has made sacrifice a way of life and is based on a self-sacrificing participation in every moment of life. Our comrade, who took part in many critical studies that require high confidence, self-discipline and sensitivity, approached these studies with a great sense of seriousness and responsibility and set success as his main goal. Our comrade Êrîş, who is engaged in guerrilla activities in Garê, Zap, Metîna, Zagros, Qendil and many other areas of our country, set an example for all his comrades as the owner of an uninterrupted and non-stop struggle. As an Apoist bodyguard, he has never accepted the captivity of our Leader, and as a militant he has always felt his responsibility. For this reason, he considered it a duty to ensure the physical freedom of our Leader by fighting more, and carried out all his struggles on this axis. In this sense, it was based on deepening the leadership style and increasing the tempo of the struggle more.
Our comrade, who moved to the Medya Defense Areas in a time when the enemy attacks against the Medya Defense Areas increased, joined the Bazên Zagrosê Revolutionary Campaign. He took part in many critical studies during the move process, and successfully carried out many works that required great sacrifices with the participation of the bouncer. Our comrade Êrîş, who wanted to be with his comrades who resisted in the war tunnels and in the form of mobile teams, wanted to ease the burden of these comrades with his participation. For this purpose, together with our comrade Partizan, he was martyred in the enemy attack that took place while they were on duty and joined the caravan of martyrs.

Our Partizan comrade, who wants to be with his comrades who are in resistance against the attacks of the colonial Turkish state against the PKK, which is the guarantee of freedom of the Kurdish and Middle Eastern peoples, joined the mobile guerrilla teams for this purpose. Our comrade, who is aware of the mission of the mobile guerrilla teams against the invading attacks, has constantly concentrated in order to have an equal participation in this mission, and has researched how to strike the enemy more with rich tactics. He shared these concentrations with his comrades and tried to have them actively participate in the war process. Being aware of the importance of the process we are in, our comrade Partizan believed with all his being that the winner at the end of this difficult process will be the Kurdistan Freedom Struggle, He also wanted to contribute more with his participation in this process. For this purpose, he wrote many reports to make a sacrifice action, and completed these concentrations with the participation of the sacrifice in life.

We will certainly successfully fulfill the revolutionary duties handed over to us by our partisan comrade, with the awareness of being worthy of all our martyrs in his person.
