Today it is part of the Democratic Confederation of Rojava, the autonomous region in fact in the canton that takes its name from this city. According to the 2007 census, it has a population of 54 681 inhabitants and is inhabited by Kurds, Arabs, Turkish and Armenians, based on an estimate of 2013. [first] The name of the city derives from that of a German company that, in the second decade of the twentieth century, built one of the stations of the ambitious Berlin-Baghdad railway on the site. [2]        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Christian Armenian refugees, who escaped the massacres of the young Ottoman Turks in Anatolia, founded a village near the station in 1915 and here they were immediately reached by Muslim Kurds who lived in the surrounding areas. From the mid -twentieth century, there were three Armenian churches in the city, but most of the Armenian population then emigrated to the Soviet Union in the sixties. [2] The urban structure of Koban\u00ea was largely planned and built by the French authorities during the French mandate of Syria and Lebanon and a good number of French construction buildings is still in use today. Recent history [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] As a consequence of the Syrian civil war, the town has passed under the control of the defense units of the Kurdish confederalist movement (PYD) le People’s Defense Units (YPG) [3] on July 19, 2012, [4] Since for this organization the Region has a strong symbolic value, in addition to an accentuated strategic and cultural relevance (so much so that the Kurdish leader Abdullah \u00d6calan had gone on July 2, 1979, shortly after the foundation of the PKK). On July 2, 2014, the Islamic State attempted to take control with weapons [5] And, after a second attempt started in September 2014, the city was nicknamed the “Stalingrad of the Near East”, to underline the strenuous resistance by the militants of Ypg and Ypj. [6]        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Koban\u00ea, in early October 2014, was siege from the forces of ISIS who moved from the south and from the west until, penetrated in the suburbs of the city, they were forced to fight house by house by the Kurdish resistants, arriving on October 12th To conquer about 80% of the entire urban area before being forced to partially backward due to the effective counterattack of the Kurds of the mixed and female units that day and night defended the city. Vast echo had the sacrifice in combat of the young Arin Mirkan, who died in a suicidal attack within a stronghold of ISIS. On January 26, 2015, after more than four months of fighting and about 2 000 deaths, the Kurdish forces regain the city, thanks also to the concentration of the air raids of the “international coalition” on the area in question. [7] The United Nations High Commissariat for refugees estimates the refugees of the entire region at 400 000 who will try to take refuge in Turkey to escape the terrorist militias of the Islamic State. [8] Twinning [ change | Modifica Wikitesto ] The city was one of the fronts of the war against the Islamic State but above all a symbolic bulwark for the Kurdish resistance, this is told not only in the newspapers and books of history also in other media such as comics Kobane calling of Zerocalcare and numerous documentaries and stories. ^   Koban\u00ea . are ethanasyria.org .
