Armenia has offered condolences to Iraq over the death of civilians and Iraqi people on tragic death of civilians as a result of shelling in Zakho district

“Our deepest condolences to friendly Iraq and Iraqi people on tragic death of civilians as a result of shelling in Zakho district. We strongly condemn violent act against civilian population & wish speedy recovery to those injured,” Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Vahan Hunanyan said in a Twitter post.

The Iraqi government has accused Turkish forces of an attack on its citizens in a resort near the Kurdish city of Zakho, in the country’s far north. Turkey denied it had launched strikes against civilians and instead claimed that its arch-foe, the Kurdistan Workers’ party (PKK), was responsible.
