What's new

Turkish army’s drill on Iraqi border [PHOTO]

I hope the situation with our guys is "Calm before the storm". Otherwise I will be very disappointed. Lets see what are going to be the news from the MGK meeting.

Preferably all of this is done without any bloodshed, the risk lies in the Peshmerga opening fire on Iraqi troops and Iraqi troops responding. Once that spark ignites we won't know what command of both sides will do and what it will take to stop. Even if Abadi calls for it to stop it'll take a while before the whole of chain of command gets it, and let alone the PMU who have so many factions present in Kirkuk and they are 'semi-independent'.

Maybe better if Turkey is involved, Pesh will not open fire on you as quickly given the larger difference in power balance they're aware of. The ISF troops in Mosul are fresh from the Mosul battle and have been battle hardened, whilst a part of the population in Iraq are against these tensions and possible war.

Quite many reports, including that the army took K-1 airbase in Kirkuk. We won't know what is valid until tomorrow.

Yesterday the deadline was extended with 24 hours given PUK efforts to convince the KDP, this extended deadline is near end.

(Soldier says they're going to Kirkuk).
May ALLAH help us all and give us this vicory and the grandest victory. May ALLAH help our soldiers and our Iraqi brothers in this fight.

Hopefully a quick success with no bloodshed on either side against Barzanistan.

Jokes aside.

From the political side they requested PMU not to participate, following forces are asked to lead the OP.

Iraq Army 9th & 15th Div • Federal police • Counter Terrorism.

But from video's and on the ground it shows PMU will participate, just a political game to please the US and other actors, so that Kurds won't be able to use that card.

According to some there's increased Incirlik activity, but we can't know if that's NATO or Turkish air force.
