[Journalists' Association of Turkey (TGS)]
KURDISH journalists have asked the world to “be their voices” as 16 of the 21 detained in raids last week were jailed today.
In an appeal sent to the Morning Star one journalist who wished to remain anonymous said that while the international community is focused on the conflict in Ukraine they ignore the plight of the Kurds.
“Hello, I’m writing to you as a Kurdish journalist. I want a few minutes of your time to see what I have to say,” the letter said.
