In the war against the Islamic State, the only movement combating the jihadists with any effectiveness on the ground is the Kurdish resistance army. This movement is made up of both men and women fighters, forcing back the jihadists and reclaiming the land village by village.

In their various roles within the resistance, these women have power and authority, even causing jihadi males to flee at their chants for fear of being killed a woman.
