KURDWATCH, October 30, 2011—Nationwide protests on October 28, 2011 again resulted in numerous dead and injured. Throughout the country, demonstrators united under the slogan »We demand a no-fly zone« took to the streets to call for the fall of the regime. Protests also took place in al-Qamishli, ʿAmudah, Darbasiyah, and Raʾs al-ʿAyn (Serê Kaniyê). A number of Kurdish party leaders took part in the demonstration in al-Qamishli. Conflicts arose between these leaders and activists from independent Kurdish revolutionary groups when the party representatives tried to display a banner stating that the Kurdish Patriotic Conference is the sole representative of the Kurds. The Kurdish Patriotic Conference in Syria is a new association of Kurdish parties.
