USA President, Barak Obama in a press conference proclaimed that Shengal siege was ended by the USA forces. This statement made by Obama once the USA special forces moved to the Shengal mountain to investigate the facts and peoples’ suffer.
The situation in Shengal Mountain is better than it was at the first day of the crises. American must be proud of our humanitarian efforts. Obama said. He continued by stating that as a result of our experienced servicemen and women, and American’s support we have managed to end ISIS blockade of the region and save thousands of innocent civilians stuck in the mountain. Therefore, we believe there is not further need to intervene militarily and also our initial efforts minimized the scope of the help we supposed to provide to the people of the region.
Ignoring Kurdish guerrillas’ efforts and sacrifice:
Fled people to the Shengal Mountain were rescued by the HPG and YPG forces by transporting the civilians through safe channels outside the battle zone. Thousands of the civilians were transported to the Rojava (western Kurdistan) which is under the control of the Kurdish poeple. HPG recently announced that the region and the Mountain is fully under their control, and ISIS threat has been eliminated. Moreover, YPJ also in a statements clarified that the region is under the HPG, YJA STAR, YPG and YPJ forces and all aid agency and humanitarian organizations can provide basic humanitarian aids to the fled civilians.
