According to NRT Turkish fighter jets launched the airstrikes on the village of Sadri in Zharawa sub-district at 10:00 am. The report stated casualties remained unclear in the airstrikes.

The Turkish military routinely carries out airstrikes and artillery bombardments in the Kurdistan Region against suspected PKK targets, but their frequency has increased since Ankara launched “Operation Claw” in May, as have civilian casualties.

At least six people total were killed and ten others wounded in three separate incidents within the borders of the Kurdistan Region last week.

The Iraqi foreign ministry released a statement on Saturday condemning deadly Turkish airstrikes in the Kurdistan Region’s border area with Turkey.

In contrast, the Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) statement following the fatal airstrikes blamed the PKK, while expressing its concern about the civilian deaths.
