Hawar News Agency, known by the initials ANHA, is a Kurdish news outlet that launched in August 2012 and reports in Arabic, Kurdish, English and Turkish. It is linked to the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria and the area's military forces, though its formal ownership is not disclosed, and it has continued operating despite the deaths of several of its journalists in airstrikes, repeated cyberattacks between 2018 and 2022, and access blocks imposed by Turkish authorities since 2015.
