SiAmo Afrin - We Are Afrin | Rete del Dono: SiAmo Afrin (We Are Afrin) Campaign is a global campaign to raise awareness and collect funds to support the people of Afrin with basic necessities.

Following the launch of hTurkey's "Operation Olive Branch" in conjunction with jihadist allies, the peaceful canton of Afrin in Rojava was invaded, pillaged and destroyed.

It's estimated that around 450,000 people fled from their homes. The displaced are currently living in the open air, without food, water and milk formula for babies. Illnesses like tuberculosis and leishmania are spreading fast, and there is a lack medical supplies.

A range of groups, activists and solidarity organisations which support the people of Rojava have called for participation in the campaign "SiAmo Afrin" (We Are Afrin). The funds collected from this initiative will be used to buy medicine, food, and other basic necessities to provide care and support to the thousands of displaced people who have fled their homes. The humanitarian aid will be taken to Rojava by a solidarity delegation that will leave for northern Syria in June.
