The crazy thing is it was Turkey who refused the USA to invade Iraq from the north.

I get the impression that being kind to nations in the middle east is the wrong way to behave. Being kind invites trouble, its almost like these people only respect force.
Turkey refused it to prevent exactly this, Iraq under Saddam was much less of a threat to Turkey than it getting under Iranian influence, the parliament voted correctly on this one, well except the only party that is ruling us today, tells volumes about the strategic foresight of AKP...

Someone made a research on the Duhok and found out the range being barely 8 km from the Turkish border.

According to reports it was a mortar round. But how many unguided mortar rounds can hit with such accuracy.

The guess is that it was fired from a closer distance.

The situation in Iraq is extremely volatile RN
Shia-controlled political parties have stormed the parliamentary building upon the orders of the pro-Iran shia head and are staging a week-long protests over there

This is a clear sign that Iran will enter into heavy indirect confrontation in Iraq to pull it away from Turkey's sphere of influence. It seems that the current Turkish military operation in Iraq was the final straw that broke the camel's back for Iran

Get ready, more and more events whether related to terrorism or not will be initiated by Iranian proxies and staged to be made by the Turks to fuel the Iraqis hatred towards the Turks

Big question is when the Kandil will be taken down. And also Sinjar. It seems to me we need to increase the number of bordo bere special forces. We should also push back Iran proxies more in Iraq.

I heard they were operations with chinhooks that are full of crew to land area.
they were almost dying due to several missile launces to the helicopters and they have to retreat.
Now, they are going to operations with sikorsky helicopters because it is more agile and less People to risk if gets shot.
