“The region’s government did not provide help in any form to the PKK fighters in the Friday attack they conducted against the Turkish army,” Fouad Hussein told Aswat al-Iraq.
“The PKK did not receive heavy arms from the Iraqi Kurdistan,” he emphasized.
Hussein explained that the region’s presidency issued a release condemning the attack, adding “no one should condemn an act it is involved in”.
