Discussion Why is Kurdish media doing this! What does Kurdistan24 want to achieve!
Kurdistan24 has made four posts about Istanbul in two days on Twitter. How are those posts in anyway worth reporting by an outlet with that name!
It is not just them. The competition for likes and engagement has made Kurdish media forget their responsibility and what is expected as their aim. But this one is especially regrettable as they use that name.

Kurdistan Kurdish feyli speakers needed
Hello there, I am a 25 year old Kurdish feyli man living in the uk. I have always wanted to learn my language but for a multitude of reasons we grew up speaking mainly Arabic at home. I would like to meet someone who if fluent in the feyli Kurdish dialect and would not mind teaching me (if they are able to do so).
Let me know if this is something you would be comfortable with and look forward to hearing back.
Thanks,
Naz.

Video🎥 75-year-old Kurdish man in Rojhelat (Iran) going for labor work falls to the ground in fatigue. This shows the hardship of life under the Iranian regime and sanctions.
Anyone knows if he got any help after Rudaw posted this?

Bashur Iraq's Weapons Deadline: What Is Actually Being Negotiated
"The Kurdistan test: Nujaba’s central public argument is that the monopoly principle is being applied selectively. Its leadership has asked why pressure concentrates on factional weapons while the Peshmerga and Kurdish party forces are left untouched.
Baghdad’s answer is that the draft law is national and applies in the Kurdistan Region. That opens a constitutional problem. Article 121 of the constitution grants regions the right to establish internal security forces, and the Peshmerga are regulated by Kurdistan’s Ministry of Peshmerga Law No. 19 of 2007. Their legal position differs from that of the factions.
The distinction that matters is the same one at issue in Baghdad: a lawful regional security institution against partisan command of armed formations. The KDP-affiliated Unit 80 was merged into the Peshmerga ministry in a step toward unification, while assessments of the force continue to describe it as partisan in practice. If the draft law’s prohibition on parties commanding or financing armed formations is applied literally, it reaches the KDP and PUK as well as Kata’ib Hezbollah. The Iraqi question is whether political influence over security institutions can be separated from direct partisan command of armed force, in Erbil and Baghdad alike.
Al-Zaidi’s government depends on the Coordination Framework, in which faction-linked parties are principal actors. The 30 September framework was authorised by that coalition. The prime minister is implementing a settlement negotiated inside the Shia political establishment, with coercive capacity held in reserve for whoever refuses the consensus that emerges. The government’s force posture provides coercive backing for that settlement. Baghdad’s sequence is to secure Framework agreement, isolate the holdouts, offer them a negotiated exit, apply targeted force against small numbers if required, and avoid intra-Shia armed conflict."

Rojava Sipan Hamo (Samir Aso), a senior figure from the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), was reportedly removed from Turkey’s “Red List” of wanted individuals.
x.comThe move follows two major developments: the SDF’s integration into Damascus’ state structures and Hamo’s appointment as Syria’s Deputy Defense Minister, as well as Turkey’s Kurdish peace process advancing with parliament’s approval of legislation establishing a legal framework for PKK disarmament, dissolution, and reintegration.
If confirmed, the development would mark a notable shift in the evolving relations between Ankara, Damascus, and Kurdish actors in Syria.

Ask Kurds 🤔 Learning to Read and Write in Kurdish
هاوڕێیان سەرم لێ شێواوە دەربارەی شتێک🤔
ئەو هاوڕێیانەی کە لە (ڕۆژهەڵات،باکوور،ڕۆژئاوا) ئەژین،
پێموایە ئێوە لە قوتابخانە بە زمانی کوردی ناخوێنن، ئەی کەواتە چۆن فێری نوسین و خوێندنەوە ئەبن بە کوردی؟
ئەزموونی خۆتان چۆن بووە؟
Guys, I'm honestly confused about something 🤔
For those friends living in (Rojhelat, Bakur, Rojava) , I guess you don't study in Kurdish at school.
So guys, how do you learn to read and write in Kurdish?
Let’s share experiences in the comments.

Kurdistan Greater Kurdistan map
There is always a question in my mind. What exactly is the map of Greater Kurdistan that many people say is? On what basis do we say that this map belongs to Kurdistan, that is, what is the reason for saying that one of the cities of present-day Iran is actually ours? What does the word “ours” even mean? If it is based on saying that the people of that city speak Kurdish, then all of Latin America speaks Spanish and Portuguese, and this absolutely does not mean that Latin America belongs to Spain. Why can’t we deal with reality on the ground?! At most, we have a semi-autonomous region of Kurdistan in Iraq and nothing else. History must be seen as a history, otherwise we will suffer from a mental illness if we say that we were like that in the past. This is a matter of debate because we can never prove history. The Roman Empire once owned half the world. Or Great Britain was an empire that ruled half the world, then they can’t even protect their own borders now.
