The Qandil region straddles the borders between Turkey, Iraq, and Iran. We cannot deny feeling uneasy, as the driver of our vehicle navigates the tight switchbacks on the way to the guerrilla. But images of hideous bombardments are not strong enough to tear our attention away from the awe-inspiring landscape. The Qandil mountains are by far the most beautiful region I have ever seen. Two guerrilla fighters stop us briefly, greet us, and send us on our way. By the time we reach Heval Zagros and his companion Heval D.

In the mountains, the women really get to know themselves. For him, the background of a person was not important, neither the matter of whether they were an experienced fighter or not. Kommentar abschicken. The Qandil mountains are by far the most beautiful region I have ever seen. Some of my family is Kurdish and I have many Kurdish friends in Germany. Skip to content.
