Airstrike kills two in Shingal: Military source
[Rudaw] A military commander said two people were killed in the Sinjar (Shingal) district of Iraq’s northern Nineveh province on Sunday, following a reported Ottoman Turkish Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
Haider Shasho, commander of the Ezidikhan Protection Forces, told Rudaw the strike hit a vehicle near Mount Shingal killing both passengers.

Rojnews, an outlet affiliated with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), blamed The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
. It did not provide any casualty figures.

Ankara often targets Shingal on the grounds of hitting PKK forces which rule Shingal through its offshoots, mainly the Shingal Resistance® Units (YBS).

Shingal, the Yezidi homeland, is part of the disputed areas claimed by Baghdad and Erbil. In addition to the Ezidikhan Protection Forces, the Kurdistan Region’s Peshmerga, Iraqi security forces, and pro-Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
militias control parts of the district.

Turkey has not commented on the incident.
