London, UK. 14th March 2018. Dolls wrapped in shrouds represent children killed as Kurds block the road at Parliament Square as they continue their protests in London trying to get the UK and other western countries to take action to stop the Turkish invasion of Afrin, a Kurdish area of Syria on the Turkish border. Turkish forces, aided by Russian air support and the Free Syrian Army which includes many former ISIS and al-Qaeda fighters are attempting to eliminate the Kurdish population in the area, claiming that they are all terrorists. The Kurdish forces played the major role in the defeat of ISIS which was supported by Turkey but are now being attacked by far better equipped forces with weapons supplied to Turkey as a member of NATO and Russian warplanes and weapons. The attacks have been targeted on civilians areas with several hundred civilian deaths and many more casualties, but despite many accounts, reports and videos of the continuing genocide it has been largely ignored by Western media and governments. The Syrian regime has protested against the incursion on its territory but appears to have done nothing. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
