“The Iraqi Government rejects, and strongly condemns, the military operations carried out by the Turkish forces by bombing Iraqi lands in the Matina, Zab, Afshin, and Basyan areas in northern Iraq.” The spokesperson for the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
“Iraq considers this act a violation of its sovereignty and international laws; It also violates the principle of neighborliness,” Ahmed al-Sahaf added.
“Iraq shall not be headquarters or corridor to attack any of the neighboring countries, and it also refuses to be an arena for conflicts for external parties,” he concluded.
