SIRNAK, — Mercan Encu the mother of Şervan and Nevzat Encu, the two children who lost their life in the Turkish air strike is devastated by pain and sorrow. “My children went to the border to buy fuel but the Turkish government mercilessly killed them. For which of my sons should I mourn now? They burnt my children,” she cried out.
Zahide Encu, mother of 12-year old victim Aslan Encu also lost her son: “My elder son lost his foot seven years ago when he stepped on a mine while doing this work. My 12-year old son was smuggling also to get the money for a prosthesis leg for his elder brother. He went there to buy two bins of fuel. However, the state confronted them and sent warplanes against them. The children who died in the bombing were all aged 12, some were 14. We have to smuggle because we don’t have any other opportunity”, she said.
The devastated mother cries out to the killers, the culprits of this massacre. She said they “are not God believers, not Muslims because Islam wouldn’t allow people to kill people with warplanes. All victims were burnt and their bodies torn apart beyond recognition. I wasn’t able to recognize the bodies of my children.”
Relative of another victim, Ayaz Encu reported that they faced with a slaughter at the scene and showed the piece of a bomb in his hand. “Our relatives were slaughtered savagely and mercilessly. The whole world needs to see that this is the real face of Turkey and the AKP. I call on the world public opinion to show awareness and the Turkish public opinion to be here,” she said while crying out.
