Not only in Shengal, but in general, the people of Bashur have an intense solidarity to help. In Êzidism, it is said, 'When you do a favor, don't ask what religion or nationality you belong to.' That's why we don't care about anyone's opinion, religion or race. We want to help and in solidarity. We want to help without discrimination. As Êzidî women, we will continue to help and support the earthquake victims until they heal their wounds. Those who came here to save the Êzidî people in the Ferman were the children of Bakur and Rojava. Today is our turn for solidarity."
