  • 7 years ago
Kimberley Taylor is believed to be the first British woman to be on the front line fighting against the Islamic State (Isis) in Syria. The Syrian Kurds began their fight for self-determination in 2011, inspired by the Arab Spring and by the ideology of Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned leader of the Kurdistan Workers' party (PKK), which is listed as a terrorist organisation in Turkey.
