KDP conducts black propaganda in Şengal

The Şengal Democratic Autonomous Assembly warned that the KDP is conducting black propaganda to win the local people over the occupation of Şengal.

After the fighting that erupted following an attack by Iraqi forces in the Yazidi town of Şengal on May 2, the Şengal Autonomous Administration and Iraqi political parties have resumed negotiations in an effort to deescalate the situation.

As efforts for a solution through dialogue continue, the ruling party, KDP, continues to escalate tensions for the last two days. Providing full support to the Turkish invasion in the guerrilla-held Medya Defense Zones, the KDP has now started to conduct black propaganda in the homeland of the Yazidi community.

The Şengal Democratic Autonomous Assembly released an urgent statement about the KDP activities and warned the public.

The Autonomous Assembly said that the KDP is making every effort to persuade the Şengal people of the Iraqi invasion and to force the Yazidi people to leave Şengal. However, since these policies have failed, the KDP has launched a special war based on black propaganda, it stated.
