ERBIL (Kurdistan24) – Kurdistan24 has learned that two individuals were killed, and one person was injured in an airstrike carried out by a Turkish warplane on a village located in the Dinarta subdistrict of Duhok's Akre district on Tuesday evening.

The two individuals were farmers and resided in the villages of Garbish and Dudiye in the Nahla region.

Meanwhile, a Kurdistan24 reporter revealed that the two individuals are identified as Arif Taha and Bashir Omar, aged between 65 and 70 years old.

Turkey has launched several large-scale ground operations against the PKK in the Kurdistan Region’s mountainous areas since 2021.

Tens of thousands have been killed on both sides in armed conflict since the mid-1980s, including civilians.

The PKK is listed as a terrorist group by the United States, Turkey, and the EU, among other countries. So far, efforts by sympathizers of the group to delist it have failed.
