  • Feiten of Framing? Een Vergelijkende Berichtanalyse Naar De Manier Waarop (Conflict)Frames Binnen Berichtgeving Over De Koerdische Kwestie Aanwezig Zijn
    Feiten of framing? Een vergelijkende berichtanalyse naar de manier waarop (conflict)frames binnen berichtgeving over de Koerdische Kwestie aanwezig zijn Megan S. van den Ende (5636078) Bacheloreindwerkstuk Nederlandse Taal en Cultuur NE3VD11017 Afdeling: Taalbeheersing Begeleider: Dhr. Dr. W. M. Mak Tweede beoordelaar: Dhr. Dr. I. O. de Vries Faculteit Geesteswetenschappen Universiteit Utrecht blok 4 19 juli 2018 Bacheloreindwerkstuk – Megan S. van den Ende (2018) Samenvatting De manier waarop een gebeurtenis of situatie in het nieuws wordt gepresenteerd door middel van framing kan een grote invloed hebben op de manier waarop de lezer tegen de besproken situatie aankijkt. De specifieke framing van een gebeurtenis binnen een nieuwsbericht heeft hiermee invloed op de publieke opinie. De Koerdische kwestie is een ingewikkelde conflictkwestie die al jaren speelt en waarin verschillende sociale actoren actief zijn, waarvan de Turkse en Koerdische partij de belangrijkste zijn. Van dit conflict is goed voor te stellen dat er geframed wordt binnen berichtgeving over gebeurtenissen die onderdeel zijn van deze kwestie. Dimitrova en Strömbäck (2005) kwamen tot de conclusie dat er een tekort is aan onderzoek dat vergelijkt hoe media van verschillende landen een oorlog bespreken. Dit onderzoek heeft daarom als doel te analyseren op welke manier er sprake is van framing binnen berichtgeving omtrent een conflict. Dit wordt gedaan aan de hand van een casus, namelijk berichtgeving over de Koerdische kwestie in de volgende nieuwsbronnen: het Nederlandse de Volkskrant, het Koerdische Rudaw en het Turkse Hürriyet. Om het onderzoek verder af te bakenen is ervoor gekozen berichtgeving omtrent Operatie Olijftak, de situatie in Noord-Syrië, nader te bestuderen.

We advocate for effective and principled humanitarian action by all, for all. www.unocha.org Northwestern Syria - Situation Report No. 13 | page 2 SITUATION OVERVIEW As the Syria crisis enters its ninth year, the humanitarian situation for people in northwest Syria remains alarming. Of the four million people in northwest Syria, living across northern and western Aleppo, northern Hama, eastern Lattakia and Idleb governorates, an estimated 2.7 million are in need of humanitarian assistance. Years of conflict have eroded the ability to cope for people across resident and displaced communities, making timely and principled provision of humanitarian assistance for them all the more critical. The most recent escalation of hostilities between the Government of Syria forces and its allies and non-state armed groups compounded an already dire humanitarian situation in northwest Syria, where an estimated two million people are internally displaced.

    Turkey | Syria: Recent Developments in North- western Syria (Idleb Governorate and Afrin District) (as of 23 January 2018) Highlights • Hostilities in southern and south-eastern rural Idleb and southern rural Aleppo continued throughout the period between 16 and 22 January. • Civilian displacement in Idleb Governorate continues as hostilities intensify. The Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) Cluster tracked a total of 247,765 displacements to central and northern rural Idleb, as well as northern rural Hama (some may be secondary displacements), between 15 December and 22 January. • On 20 January, Turkish officials announced the start of Operation Olive Branch in Afrin District. Following the announcement, hostilities intensified significantly in Afrin District, resulting in displacement and casualties. • The ongoing hostilities in Idleb Governorate and the recent escalation in violence in Afrin District raise concerns regarding the protection of civilians, especially considering the concentration of civilians in both of these locations. • Concerns are raised about the restrictions on the freedom of movement of civilians in Afrin District which were imposed by the Afrin local authorities. Reports indicate that local authorities closed exit points from Afrin District, making it impossible for civilians to seek refuge in the nearby communities.

  • Ouvrir Les Yeux Sur L'agression Turque Contre
    OUVRIR LES YEUX SUR L’AGRESSION TURQUE CONTRE AFRIN Bilan du premier mois de l’opération « Rameau d’olivier » menée par la Turquie et ses alliés islamistes à Afrin (en Syrie du nord) : Violations quotidiennes du droit international 180 civils tués 413 civils blessés 668 frappes aériennes sur des zones et des infrastructures civiles 2645 tirs d’artillerie et de tanks Patrimoine culturel universel détruit 17 février 2018 Rapport établi par la Représentation du Rojava en France en lien avec ​ ​ le Comité des Affaires Extérieures de la région d’Afrin de la Fédération Démocratique de la Syrie du Nord Les informations, les photos et les vidéos mentionnées dans ce rapport sont issues de sources fiables travaillant sur le terrain et elles ont fait l’objet de vérifications et de recoupements. 2 Représentation du Rojava en France www.rojavafrance.fr - [email protected] - 06.09.39.45.07 INTRODUCTION Depuis le samedi 20 janvier 2018, appuyée par des mercenaires recrutés parmi les groupes djihadistes les plus radicaux présents en Syrie, dont de nombreux membres de Daech, l’armée turque mène des attaques militaires aériennes et terrestres sans précédent sur la région d’Afrin, en Syrie du nord. Afin de justifier son opération, cyniquement baptisée « Rameau d’olivier », la Turquie prétend « protéger sa frontière en combattant les organisations terroristes telles que ​ les YPG, en accord avec le droit international » (déclaration du porte-parole de la ​ présidence turque, Ibrahim Kalim, le 31 janvier 2018). Pourtant, rien ne saurait justifier une telle agression ! Majoritairement peuplée de Kurdes, la région d’Afrin était jusqu’à présent la zone la plus sécurisée de Syrie, restée à l’écart de la guerre, à tel point que 400 000 réfugiés s’y étaient installés, fuyant les combats, notamment à Alep.
