At least six foreign tourists were killed and 26 others were injured after the Turkish military shelled the Zakho resort town in Iraqi Kurdistan, according to a source cited by Sputnik.
 
"Six tourists were killed, 26 were injured as a result of the fall of artillery shells of the Turkish armed forces on the resort town of Zakho in Iraqi Kurdistan," the source said, adding that tourists were from Arab countries.

This month, a Turkish military base in the northern Iraqi province of Dohuk was attacked with at least two missiles, an Iraqi security source said.

"At least two missiles fell inside a Turkish base in the Shiladze district of Dohuk province," the source told Sputnik. "There has been no information about casualties so far."

"The available information establishes that there are rising plumes of smoke from inside the base," the official explained.

Earlier in June, Kata'ib Hezbollah, or the Iraqi Hezbollah Battalions, in Iraq stated that "Turkey's ongoing aggression against Iraq is not only a violation of sovereignty but an offense against the Iraqi people."

“The Iraqi people and their resistance are fully prepared to face this aggression," it added.

In the same context, Ashab Al-Kahf, or “the Cave Companions,” called for "a real practical stance from the Iraqi political authorities to end Turkey's actions," stressing that the Turkish administration has recently been coordinating effectively with the Israeli enemy, especially in northern Iraq, and are targeting the Kurds.
