NEWS CENTER - While at least 22 people have been killed in Turkey's attacks against the Federated Kurdistan Region in the last 8 months, the lack of a single statement from the Iraqi government and KDP on the attacks drew attention. 

Turkey has increased its attacks in the Federated Kurdistan Region in recent months. In the attacks, which continue with the cooperation of the KDP, civilian settlements and vehicles are frequently targeted. In addition, assassinations of politicians are carried out. In the last 8 months alone, at least 22 people, including journalists Gulistan Tara and Hêro Bahadîn, have lost their lives and 11 people have been injured. 
 
The Iraqi central government and the government of the Federated Kurdistan Region are completely silent about the attacks. In addition, no statement has been made so far about the civilian massacres. While the KDP media legitimized the attacks as “PKK militants were bombed”, a “security agreement” was signed between the Iraqi government and Turkey.
