Yet another attack by the Turkish state in Sulaymaniyah leaves 3 dead

The occupying Turkish state attacked a traveling car in Şarbajêr district of Sulaymaniyah city in Southern Kurdistan (Northern Iraq) and killed 3 people.

According to RojNews, a vehicle travelling near Çiwarta sub-district of Şarbajêr district was targeted by an unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) at noon.

It is reported that three people in the vehicle were killed in the attack. The identities of the victims have not yet been determined.

On Wednesday, 4 September, the Turkish state carried out a UCAV attack on a vehicle travelling on the Xelekan-Kaniwatman road on the Dukan border in the city of Sulaymaniyah, killing a father and his two sons. The murdered children were 12 and 15 years old.

According to official data, 20 people have been killed as a result of the attacks carried out by the occupying Turkish state against the territory of Southern Kurdistan since the beginning of 2024.

Journalists Gulistan Tara and Hêro Behadîn were killed and 6 journalists were wounded, one of them seriously, in an attack by the Turkish state that directly targeted journalists in Sulaymaniyah countryside on 23 August.

While the Turkish state is openly supported by the ruling KDP in its invasion campaign and attacks directed against civilians, the Baghdad administration recently signed a security agreement with the Turkish state. After this agreement on 15 August, Turkey’s attacks have remarkably escalated.
