The director of Banki of Zakho district, Farhad Mahmoud stated that the attack led to a lot of damages and added that the Turkish bombardment continues to bomb regularly on the villages, and it is not possible now to fully assess the losses because the areas are difficult to reach. 

A week ago, the Turkish Ministry of Defense announced the killing of two soldiers and the wounding of a third in the area of ​​what it calls "Claw-eagle and Tiger" military operations in northern Iraq, during clashes with PKK fighters in the Hakurk region.

On April 23, Turkey launched a ground operation against the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in northern Iraq and focused on the "Metina" area.

The Turkish Minister of the Interior announced, previously, that his country is in the process of establishing a military base in Metina, which is a vital area for the organization's elements in the Qandil Mountains region.
