No-Fly Zone over Northeast Syria
Stop the Ottoman Turkish invasion into Northeast Syria!
Don’t let Christianity be driven out of Northeast Syria!
ISIS is not defeated and Europe can stop a disaster for itself and the people of North-East Syria
Since 2014 our Syriac-Assyrian people in Syria and Iraq have suffered greatly under ISIS. Today we can see that ISIS is almost defeated after intense cooperation between SDF and International Coalition. Now however we urge European countries to step in as US forces withdraw from North-East Syria. The Christian communities there fear total destruction by the hands of Turkey, Iran and even ISIS as that is not fully defeated yet. We call on European
countries to join the UK and France in finalising the fight against ISIS and keeping North-East Syria stable. We and many experts believe that ISIS otherwise will return in strength.
