Hey! idk if this should be kept as just a page on the Kirkuk offensive but there are several areas involved with this (for example Tuz is not so close to Kirkuk) so it's almost like a full blown conflict I think. >Kirkuk governor urges people to take up arms to protect the city. >Fire was opened on the Iraqi special ops near the industrial district in kikrkuk. >Officially, kikrkuk war begins. PMF fires first shells in Taza Khurmatu against peshmerga, senior KRG official says. >Kirkuk governor left to sleimania >Iraq: Kurdish source: Vice President of the Kurdistan region Kosrat Rasul leafs Kurdish forces of 3 thousand peshmerga entering Kirkuk >Clashes in Tuz between local units >Clashes in Taza now, PMU shelling >Iraqi state TV running hashtag “we will not use our army against our people”, PM orders security forces to protect citizens in Kirkuk. >Kirkuk Governor is leading a revolt at this point >Breaking Live #Peshmerga on the way to Taza: Clashes have started in Taza, 2 big explosion #Kirkuk >Both sides opened fire. Heavy battle ongoing right now in battle for Kirkuk. First dead confirmed. >Sources confirm that Iraqi Army 9th & 15th divisions, Federal Police & ICTF only forces involved in #Kirkuk operations. #Iraq >Iraqi forces take control of 'vast areas' in Kirkuk region: state TV this is only handful of events, use https://globaleventmap.org/#!area=2&overview=5&lat=35.427550400029375&lng=44.62261032115593&zoom=9 and https://iraq.liveuamap.com/ there is an absolute goldmine of events happening within those links.
