Kurdish school opens in West Kurdistan

EfrinWEST KURDISTAN, — After the liberation of the Kurdish cities from the tyranny of Syrian regime in West Kurdistan, the first Kurdish school opened by Kurdish Language Organisation.

The Kurdish Language Organisation has managed to open the first Kurdish school within the frame of its goals and establishment to provide studying in the Kurdish language.

”This is the very first Kurdish school in West Kurdistan and it is another progressive step we are making within our dreams. We are very excited and the school will be protected,” said Tamuz Shamali a member of the organisation, in the opening of the school.

The school is in the Qude village in Efrin region and named as Shehid Refhat.

More than 3 million Kurds live in Syria where they were deprived of the most basic right such as education in mother tongue or access to Syrian identification card, including passport.

Kurds in this part of Kurdistan rose up peacefully and democratically in 19 July and took control of the Kurdish cities heralding the beginning of a de-facto Kurdish state in West Kurdistan.
