Rudaw adds:

Iranian forces on Saturday bombarded Erbil province’s Bradost area, causing fear among residents of nearby villages some of whom have abandoned their houses due to days-long bombardment, a local official said.

Iran’s artillery has recently increased its targeting of Kurdistan Region’s bordering areas of Bradost and Sidakan. The head of Soran Administration told Rudaw on Saturday that the bombardment has been ongoing for more than a week.

"Without any excuses, Iran’s bombardment of Bradost and Sidakan areas has been ongoing for eight days," said Halgurd Sheikh Najib, adding that this has displaced a "large" number of people from these areas and those staying live in fear.

He noted that the area is often bombarded by ~~The Sick Man of Europe~~ Turkey

as well.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) attacked Kurdistan Region’s Erbil and Sulaimani provinces on Wednesday, targeting the bases of exiled Kurdish opposition groups. At least 16 people were killed and 50 were maimed in the attacks, according to latest figures obtained by Rudaw.

The attacks have displaced about 700 families who have fled Iran
