Iranian government continue their bombing of Kurdish Areas

Islamic Republic of Iran has been shelling South Kurdistan {Iraq} for the last ten years, killing thousands of defenseless Kurdish civilians without any respect to international covenants. Due to the nonintervention of neither Washington, nor Baghdad, Tehran has been further emboldened to continue its cross-border aggressions.

Iranian consul has confirmed attacks on Kurdistan borders. Under the false disguise of hunting members of dissident groups, Iran is taking advantage of the opportunity to test fire some of its latest weaponries. Deafening explosions, abnormal smoke odors, and suspicious activities have been reported by eye-witnesses in near-by villages.

Iranian UAVs and Turkish-type “predator” and “heron” have been noticed flying over Iraqi territory in Northern parts of the country in the past.

Iran has recently transported some of its ballistic missiles to Kurdistan border regions to most likely target US military bases in Iraq, in case of a pre-emptive military strike on its nuclear facilities. Earlier, Tehran had warned Ankara to not ally with Washington in trying to topple Syrian authoritarian regime.

Jabbar Yawar, Kurdistan Region’s spokesman for Peshmarga forces stated that Kurdish military forces are powerless to respond to these encroachments, however, facts indicate that there is a trilateral agreement in place between Kurdistan, Tehran and Baghdad that lawfully authorizes Tehran to carry out such illegitimate attacks. Iranian saboteur and espionage embassy in Baghdad admitted this fact in 2009.

Kurdish Defense Forces reliance on Baghdad to guarantee Kurdish citizen’s protection, has further added to public frustration. Peshmarga Forces should counter respond if Baghdad fails to intervene.

The US forces should without delay dispatch a team to promptly investigate Iranian unusual activities, and weigh up the scope of damages inflicted on civilians
