Turkey bombs civilian houses in Amadiya, South Kurdistan

The Turkish state continues its genocidal campaign against the Kurdish people in various parts of Kurdistan.

The invading Turkish state bombed civilian houses in the countryside of Duhok governorate in the Kurdistan region of Iraq (KRI).

The attack on Friday targeted villages in the city of Amadiya. According to reports from the ground, a cannon ball hit a house in the village of Berçî, causing material damage.

Attacks by Turkey that violate international law have been routine in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq) for years. The Turkish air force bombs the territory of the KRI and Iraq on an almost daily basis, especially where guerrillas are suspected. However, civilian settlement areas are also regularly attacked by the Turkish army, including the Yazidi settlement area of Shengal and the Maxmur refugee camp. With its aerial terror, Ankara is pursuing a targeted policy of displacement - in particular by deliberately destroying civilian infrastructure.
