Iraq asked Turkey’s ambassador to tell his government to stop attacks that violate its sovereignty and target civilians in Kurdish areas of northern Iraq.
“The Iraqi government protested the violation of Iraq’s sovereignty and the bombardments of border areas and the targeting of innocent civilians in Kurdistan,” the Baghdad-based Foreign Ministry said today in a statement posted on the website of state-sponsored Iraqiya television. “The Iraqi government asks for an immediate halt to these operations.”
