'#Facebook has removed several tags relating to #Rojava from its site.

The social media company, which has been criticised in the past for banning users and suspending accounts for sharing Kurdish or pro-Kurdish content, has removed tags relating to Rojava (Western #Kurdistan) in Northern Syria.

The tags 'Syrian Kurdistan', 'YPG', 'YPJ', 'SDF', 'PKK' and 'Kurds' cannot be chosen by admins when sharing videos from pages and groups on the site. Tags make finding content easier and assist in showing up on interested users' timelines.

Videos shared by the Kurdish Question Facebook page can no longer be tagged with the words mentioned above...'
