Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, a local source reported that Turkish forces targeted multiple areas on the Erbil governorate's periphery.
The source told Shafaq News agency that the Turkish artillery bombarded the regions of Ciya Surk and Tarjan within the borders of the Bradost, Erbil governorate.
The attack resulted in extensive damage to the agricultural landscape.
It is worth noting that the Turkish army regularly targeted areas in northern Iraq where members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party are located.
