    Some of the maps I published on Twitter so far. My maps cover the topics of conflicts and ethnicity in the MENA region with a special focus on the Kurdish struggle for freedom.

    Second report is confirmed and says, that both Turkish auxilliaries and regular military created a prostitution ring in Efrîn, where they forced local women to participate. There has been no investigation and victims which spoke out have apparently been blackmailed.

    As Turkey imposed a media blackout on Efrîn and Western journalists aren't interested in the topic either, it's hard to confirm news from there. But this week, we have three drastic reports from the occupied areas:

    If had an iota of good will, they would've eradicated this disgusting behavior long time ago. It is their own gunmen that do it.

    I have made some important changes in my Şehba map, at western Al-Ra'i. The first image is the previous version. Al-Shabaniyah is the most interesting change. This village is inhabited by Arabised Albanians whose elders speak Turkish. However their clan name is ''Al-Agha''?

    Photos indicate torture, look at their feet. This is not committed by criminal gangs, but by a state which is still considered to become part of the EU.

    Interestingly, noble Arab tribes like the Shammar chased out IS-supporters as well - and they did so rightfully - but they didn't receive critics. is corrupt, probably racist and definitely a disgrace for a Human Rights organization.

    So , if the Êzîdîs who faced a genocide by IS act against its supporters, it's ethnic cleansing. If Turkey invades democratic Efrîn, deports civilians and colonizes it with Islamist colonizers, it's... yeah tell me, what is it?

    Remember their reports accusing Ezidi of throwing out the Arab Neighbours who sold them to daesh? Who helped daesh commit genocide? Amnesty accused the Ezidi of changing demography. It is who they are.
