According to Kurdistan Human Rights Network, 10 Kurds were detained by Iranian forces in Chaldoran. The detained people are accused of supporting Kurdish groups in the region.

On November 3, eight Iranian soldiers were killed at Baba Nur mountain near Chaldoran. As a result, citizens are living in a state of fear and terror due to the strict security measures enforced in Chaldoran border area following the clash.

“At least six of these citizens were arrested on Nov 8 and 9 while the security forces have also started a new wave of arrests against Kurdish citizens in Chaldoran” a source speaking to KHRN said.
