Assyrians under kurdish rule- the situation in northeastern syria

Silvia Ulloa Syria's disintegration as a result of the Syrian Civil War created the conditions for the rise of Kurdish autonomy in northern Syria, specifically in the governorates of Al-Hasakah and Aleppo. This region, known by Kurds as 'Rojava' ('West', in West Kurdistan), came under the control of the Kurdish socialist Democratic Union Party in 2012, after the strain of the civil war caused the weakened Syrian state to withdraw and leave the area under local militia control.
