Dilan Judi is a 21 year-old Canadian who has been in Syrian Kurdistan (Rojava) for more than two years. She says that she initially came here to help the revolution and the fight against ISIS as a member of the YPJ, and later moved to the medical unit of the force to help the wounded comrades.
Judi has participated in several battles against ISIS including in Hasakah and the Tabka dam and she has been deployed in various posts since her arrival.
She has been wounded in battle herself, and she has helped save the lives of many of her comrades. For the last three months she has been working at a new trauma center. She says she became a medic after seeing that there weren’t enough people doing it and there were too many wounded fighters in need of medical assistance.
Judi says that she isn’t planning to go back to Canada any time soon because there is still much work to do.
