Iraqi Parliament Representative Warns of Dangerous Turkish Movements in Northern Iraq
According to the English section of webangah news agency, quoting Al-Maloma, Ali Al-Bandawi, a member of Iraq’s Security and Defense Committee, described recent Turkish military activities in northern Iraq as “dangerous and a clear violation of sovereignty.”
In a statement to Al-Maloma News Agency, Al-Bandawi said Ankara’s justification based on the presence of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) is no longer valid. Though,Turkish forces persist in their operations inside Iraqi territory amidst an unjustifiable silence from Baghdad.
He added that these ongoing violations pose a threat to Iraq’s national security and demand an explicit government stance to halt and prevent future incidents.
Earlier,a informed source told Al-Maloma that new Turkish incursions were recorded in eastern Mount Matin in northern Iraq. The source explained that these operations took place in rugged terrain and reflect attempts to establish footholds at strategic locations.
