About Women's Protection Units
The Women's Protection Units or Women's Defense Units (YPJ) was an all-female militia involved in the Syrian civil war. The YPJ was part of the Syrian Democratic Forces, the armed forces of the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria, and is closely affiliated with the male-led YPG. While the YPJ is mainly made up of Kurds, it also includes women from other ethnic groups in Northern Syria.
