People’s Defence Forces (HPG) denied reports that say three guerrillas were killed in Kirkuk.

HPG’s Kirkuk-Makhmur Command Centre released a statement about recent reports by various media outlets that say three Kurdish guerrillas were killed in Kirkuk.

“Recently some internet websites and social media accounts released reports concerning out forces. Those reports included false claims that bodies of three guerrillas were found at the office of a political party. We want to share with the public opinion and our people that these are totally false claims and aims to cause disturbance between Kurdish political parties and the people” the statement read.

HPG called upon all people to ignore the reports and said that it’s following those who spread false news.
