Iran is rising against its opponents in Kurdistan ... and Iraq is watching

 

Baghdad Baraa al-Shammari, Arbil Mohammed Ali

The Iranian military escalation inside the Iraqi border villages and villages within the Kurdistan region with Iran, enters its second week, through the artillery and missile attacks that caused the deaths of Iraqi civilians as well as members of the Iranian Kurdish opposition parties, which take from the Iraqi regions in the region back bases. The Iranian escalation, which followed an attack by the Iranian Kurdish opposition on an IRGC barracks inside Iran and caused losses among its members, was from an Iraqi town, prompting the Iranians to react violently, the strongest in nearly two years. So far Iranian attacks have recorded the killing and wounding of seven Iraqi Kurdish civilians, as well as losses recorded in armed wings of several Kurdish parties opposed to Tehran.

According to special information obtained by the "New Arab", officials of the Ministry of Peshmerga, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces penetrated for days within the Iraqi border villages as deep as 6 kilometers, near the mountain of Surin, the Iraqi border, which belongs to Sayed Sadiq, within the limits of the province of Sulaymaniyah, They also penetrated into Iraqi mountainous areas following the area of Soran at a depth of up to 5 kilometers. According to the same sources, the areas in which the Iranian forces penetrated (the Revolutionary Guards), free of Peshmerga forces, which led to the displacement of villagers, as well as residents on the slopes of the mountains near the junction Qandil - Sedkan within the triangle of Iraq, Iran and Turkey, 500 families in total, and works since last Tuesday evening Barzani charity to provide urgent aid to them.
 

"  Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces penetrated for days inside Iraqi border villages as deep as 6 kilometers  "

Unlike Tehran, which has vowed to escalate "destructive" in the event of repeated attacks on its troops from Iraq, the Iraqi authorities in Baghdad so far no comment on the Iranian bombing of Iraqi areas, and the loss of victims of its Kurdish citizens within the Kurdistan region of Iraq. The office of Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi, in contact with the "New Arab" on Wednesday morning, to give any information on the position of the government, while the Kurdistan Regional Government issued a statement denouncing the Iranian bombardment within its territory. On the other hand, Iran is still waiting for a response from Kurdish leaders in Erbil on the need to hand over the leadership of the Kurdish parties opposed to Iran, which are located in the region, confirming that the information indicates the beginning of a process of communication between these parties and Washington, which Tehran considers a direct threatFor its national security, and Erbil is responsible for handling the file. Officials in Erbil, the "new Arab", that the Iranians want to hand them Kurdish leaders of Iran in the region, as well as move to expel them from areas in the outskirts of Erbil and Sulaymaniyah, and not to allow the region to launch attacks on the inside of Iran, considering that these parties continue with the Americans Is another major hostile act that is no different from that of the Iranian Kurdish opposition parties. 

A Kurdish official close to the President of the Democratic Party Massoud Barzani, that the latter refuses to even discuss the handover of Kurdish opposition leaders to Iran, and this is a disgrace can not be provided to him, pointing out that the hopes placed on the Iranian Kurdish forces to avoid the region embarrassment and the current pressure, Hit the Iranian positions from inside Iraq, and stop the practice of any political activities against Tehran from within Kurdistan, especially as it dealsIn an amicable and moral manner with the authorities of the region, unlike the PKK , which is opposed to Ankara and is also present in the Kandil mountains of Iraq. He stressed that Erbil "can not provide for their extradition in any way, nor to launch a military campaign through the Peshmerga forces to push them to retreat from the areas in which they reside within the villages within the region, it also serves as a handover to the Revolutionary Guards," adding that Barzani will lose a lot on The level of the Kurds of the world in general, and Iraq and Iran in particular, if he did so.

Several Iranian Kurdish parties are present in the Kurdistan region, with military and political wings, concentrated in the areas and villages of northern Erbil and south Sulaymaniyah, and in Koesengk near Kirkuk, which last year witnessed heavy Iranian missile bombardment on the headquarters of an Iranian Kurdish opposition party during a meeting, Its members were wounded nearly fifty. The most prominent Kurdish parties in the Iranian Kurdistan region of Iraq, the Kurdistan Freedom Party, and the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran, known as "Hadka", The Kurdistan Communist Party (KOM), and the Free Life Party in Kurdistan, Iran, known as the "Bijak". The wings of these armed parties carried out attacks inside Iranian territory targeting the Revolutionary Guards and the army in the Kurdish areas within the towns and villages of Lurstan, Kurdistan, Kermanshah, Qasr Shirin, Ilam, Mahabad and others from Iraq. These parties vary intellectually between secular, communist and nationalist leftist parties, but coordinate their armed attacks from time to time in what they call the goal of salvation from the curse of Sykes-Picot. The sites of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards broadcast video shows that the latter bombed Iraqi villages in the Kurdistan region with rockets, artillery and RPGs on the tenth of this month, while Kurdish authorities said the bombing caused the death of an Iraqi young woman and wounding others.
 

"  Tehran confirmed that its information indicates the start of a process of communication between the Kurdish parties of Iran's opposition and Washington  "

In contrast, the Iraqi MP Kawa Mohammed, expressed surprise at the lack of response by the governments of Baghdad and Erbil on the Iranian attack, which took the innocent villages in the Kurdistan region, stressing, in a press statement, that violations of Iraqi sovereignty by neighboring countries continue. He stressed the need to work to save the lives of citizens, calling on the Iraqi government in Baghdad to intervene immediately and quickly to end the flagrant violations of Iraqi sovereignty, pointing out that the Iranian bombingA girl was killed and others wounded. The commander of the Suran in the Kurdistan region Kermang Izzat, earlier, said that Iranian artillery bombed the villages of Brezin, Diri, Dasnia, Bie Goshik and Dostana border with Iran. He pointed out that the bombing resulted in the death of an 18-year-old girl and injuring her two brothers, as well as material damage in fields and livestock. A member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party in Erbil, Mahma Hussein, told the "new Arab" that the Iranian pressure must be faced by Baghdad, but since the equation is known in relation to the federal government and Iran, Erbil bear the subject alone. "The extradition of any Kurdish opposition is not on the table, and the issue is moral above all, but we hope that the opposition forces in eastern Kurdistan understand this," he said.

Kurdish nationalists use eastern Kurdish terms to refer to the Kurdish regions of Iran, and south in reference to the Kurdistan region of Iraq, while the north to the Kurds of Turkey and western Kurdistan to Kurdish areas in Syria. "The Iranian bombardment has been stopped for the past 24 hours and the situation can be described as calm, but it has focused in the past few days on border areas such as the Halkurd and Balakati mountains, where the Kurdish opposition parties "Adding that" the recent escalation was one of the reasons for the assassination of the Kurdish parties opposed to local Kurdish agents, who deliver information to the Revolutionary Guard and liquidated by the Kurdish opposition, "asserting that the Iranian bombing caused the fall of Iraqi Kurds.
