Why is the ISIS flag being flown over Raqqa once again?

There has been a video of an ISIS flag been flown on Raqqa which has been circulating a lot around digital media in the last days. One would be forgiven for thinking that it was taken back in 2016, when ISIS still controlled the city and used it as the capital of its caliphate. But in fact it was taken in 2026, just a few days ago.

So, why is this happening? Had ISIS not been defeated?

For those who are concerned with the possibility that ISIS may resurge once again and want to understand what is happening, this article will try to explain it without assuming any previous knowledge of the situation.

Perspectives from Rojava - Young Revolutionaries talk about the Internationalist Struggle in the current phase

This special edition is an outcome of the Şehid Hêlîn Qerecox Academy in Rojava, which is a place for young people from all over the world to educate themselves on the principles of democracy, ecology and women’s liberation.

Moreover it is a place to understand the history and the achievements of the revolution of Rojava and try to build up a communal life and struggle together. The Academy was dedicated to the revolutionary woman and YPJ-commander Şehîd Ronahî Yekta, who was martyred on the 25 December 2024 in the defense of the Tishreen dam.

In the pages that follow we open our dreams as young internationalists in Rojava and examine our limits and difficulties in order to achieve them, our emotions, our fears and our goals inside of the Revolution.
