During July the PKK-affiliated Ciwanên Şoreşger organization/ Revolutionary Youth kidnapped 3 kids from areas controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces.

According to the Syrian Monitoring Network for Human Rights, the Revolutionary Youth Organization kidnapped: Muhammad Abdullah Al-Ahmad, 15 years old, from the city of Alraqqa, the child Aziz Alaa Sweiri, 14 years old, from the city of Alraqqa, and the child Ahmed Firas Al-Jassem, 13 years old, from the city of Munbij.

The commander of the Syrian Democratic Forces, Mazloum Abdi (at that time), signed with the United Nations representative for children and armed conflict, Virginia Gamba, in 2019 a commitment plan to end and prevent the recruitment of children under the age of 18 and not to use them in military action.

Many families are afraid of announcing the abduction of the Revolutionary Youth (Ciwanên Şoreşger) for their children, for fear of retaliation by the PYD and PKK militants, and many of them resort to working to return their children through mediation and paying sums of money in this regard.

It should be noted that the kidnapping of the PKK-affiliated (Ciwanên Şoreşger) organization aims, according to observers, to brainwash them and instruct them on the ideas of the PKK, recruit them and transfer them to the party’s camps in Şengal and Qandil.
