Suspected Turkish drone kills one in Makhmour camp
|
[Rudaw] A suspected Ottoman Turkish drone bombarded Makhmour refugee camp in Erbil province, controlled by the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), causing one casualty and material damages, a media outlet affiliated with the group reported on Monday.
The drone targeted a house in Makhmour camp and injured Abu Zayd Abdullah, a father of six children, who later departed this vale of tears after being taken to a hospital, PKK-affiliated Rojnews and Firat News Agency (ANF) said.
Ottoman Turkish forces frequently bombard PKK-controlled Makhmour camp in Erbil province on the grounds of targeting PKK fighters. Three people were killed in a suspected Ottoman Turkish Arclight airstrike
 ...KABOOM! ...
near the camp in June 2021.
The PKK is an gang struggling for the increased rights of Kurds in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
. Ankara considers it a terrorist organization and frequently targets it at home as well as southward in the Kurdistan Region and Iraq and has launched successive cross-border operations against the group.
Makhmour camp hosts more than 12,000 Kurdish refugees who fled persecution by the Ottoman Turkish state, mostly in the 1990s. It is located in areas disputed between Erbil and Baghdad.
Last month, a Ottoman Turkish drone targeted the camp and only caused material damages, hours after an Iraqi military delegation visited Makhmour.
The Iraqi government lost control of Makhmour camp when the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) attacked the country and took control of large swathes of territory.
Saeed al-Jayashi, Security Advisor at the Iraqi National Security Advisory, told Rudaw in late February that the federal government is seeking to retake control of the administration, security, and services of the camp.
