Kurdish Fighters Overrun Turkish Fighting Positions in Northern Iraq
Published 1 years ago
GoPro footage released through the Kurdish channel GerilaTV captures several guerilla fighters advancing on and through several Turkish fighting positions in Northern Iraq.
Turkish sources have confirmed that three of their Soldiers were killed in the Zap region of Northern Iraq when members of a Kurdish guerilla force conducted a raid on their positions. Another Turkish Soldier was later confirmed to have died from wounds he sustained in combat during this specific raid.
The GoPro footage above was released by GerilaTV, which is a media branch of the Kurdish Guerilla movement in both Iraq and Syria. It shows the raid as it was conducted by Kurdish forces. The guerillas managed to push the Turkish troops back, recover equipment, and retreat back to their own fighting positions before Turkish air support could come on station.
It's unclear from the video alone, mainly because my Kurdish is worse than my Arabic and my Arabic isn't good, but it does appear as if three Kurdish fighters were also killed during the raid. Someone please correct me on that down in the comments if I'm mistaken.
