YRK is the militia of the "Free Life Party of [Iran-held part of] Kurdistan" (PJAK) which was one of the three sibling-organizations establishing the "Women! Life! Freedom!"-slogan and associated antiauthorianism, feminism, diversity, etc thoughts in Iran-held part of Kurdistan from where it spread through all Iran becoming the main force of the uprisings in response to the immoral "morality" police murdering Jîna/Mahsa Amini over the regime's brutally sexist imposing of fashion preference.
YRK is the area-equivalent of the the worldwide more well known YPG of the "Rojava Revolution", primary in territorially defeating ISIL/Daesh.
At the peak of aforementioned antiauthoritarian feminist uprisings against the Iran-regime Turkey and Iran at about the same time bombarded PJAK's forces, as well as those of the parties Komala and KDPI in exile in Iraq, hitting e.g. refugee camps incl school.
Iran and Turkey, as well as Syria before Turkey's invasion of Syria, have a history of joint military ops against dissidents and persecuted minorities groups in each others' territories, wherein one would send tanks, another airstrikes, etc at the same time.

'Sheikhs and notables of Arab tribes in Syria-Iraq confirm that Turkey is an occupying country, and it's goal is to displace the indigenous population of the region and undermine the economy, security, and stability in Syria and Iraq, which is one of the old Ottoman ambitions.
[...]
Hussein Al-Sada, the leader of the Arab Bani Saba clan, noted that Turkey is an occupying country and cannot be described otherwise.

“The PKK is a liberation force made up of the sons and daughters of the region, and it has made great sacrifices to protect the Syrian and Iraqi people.” Hussein Al-Sada said.'

'34 political parties and civil society organizations in NE Syria have renewed their rejection of Turkey's ongoing attacks on the peoples of Syria and Iraq. They have called on international powers and organizations to intervene to stop these attacks [...]

"Turkey continues its hostile policies and military attacks against the Kurdish, Arab, Assyrian, and other communities in Iraq and Syria. This aligns with the Milli Pact [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misak-%C4%B1_Mill%C3%AE] project and the new Ottoman mentality [...]
The Turkish state was founded on massacres and genocides against various peoples and communities [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kemalism#Nationalism], particularly Kurds, Armenians, Arabs, and Assyrians in the last century. It continues to uphold the same supremacist, exclusionary, authoritarian, and chauvinistic mentality, aiming to kill, assimilate, and exclude anyone who demands their legitimate rights, even if peacefully and democratically.
[...]
We call on the Arab League, all Arab countries, and various national and legal institutions to raise their voices and take action. They should fulfill their responsibilities to stop Turkey’s occupation of northern Iraq and Syria and its interventions in Arab countries, regardless of the pretext. [...]"'

'The Women’s Protection[/Defence] Units (YPJ) issued [https://ypjrojava.net/en/?p=21199] a call to women, peoples and international forces to unite against the Turkish state’s deployment of Islamic State (ISIS) militants to the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI). [...]

Sozdar Dêrik of the YPJ emphasised the threat posed by Turkey’s use of ISIS fighters in the region, highlighting past atrocities committed by the group in Syria, Iraq and beyond. “ISIS’s massacres in Syria, Iraq, Sinjar (Şengal), Kurdistan and Europe remain in the public’s memory. Thousands of Yazidi women were abducted, and countless lives were lost,” she said.
[...]
“We will not allow ISIS to resurge in the region. We will continue to fight for the safety of our women and peoples, as we did in Kobane,” Dêrik concluded.

Sepi Media, an independent news outlet, recently exposed Turkey’s alleged training of 416 former ISIS fighters in Afrin (Efrin), Syria, reportedly deployed to the KRI to battle the Kurdish guerrilla forces. [...]'

"The Turkish army’s invasion of the Iraqi Kurdistan region has led to massive displacement and environmental destruction, particularly in the Penjwen (Pêncewîn) region. The bombings not only threaten forests but also cause anxiety among residents and deter tourists, leading to economic hardship."

More aspects of Erdogan's war of aggression here:

Bare area in Kurdistan Region of Iraq/S Kurdistan has been bombarded for two days, igniting wildfires longterm devastating the general environment around Bare Gare/Gawre village.
Volunteer locals keep fighting Turkey's imperialist aggression devastating environmental impacts.

Now there's an article in English with further details on the videos I posted a few hours ago:

"Fires have broken out in Amedi (Amêdiyê) district, Iraqi Kurdistan as a result of Turkish bombardments, exacerbating environmental and humanitarian crises. Recent bombings on the villages of Deresh (Dereşê) and Rızık (Rêzikê) intensified the blaze.
[...]
Further complicating the situation, RojNews recently revealed that the Turkish military is using heavy machinery to cut down trees in Duhok province and transport the wood into Turkey. Reports indicate systemic deforestation causing irreparable damage to the forest ecosystems and negatively impacting local livelihoods."

Note again that this long standing warfare strategy by Turkey is unequivocably a war crime.

After the locals' volunteers managed to get the fire in their home started by Turkey's invasion military somewhat under control, Erdoğan's imperialist war of aggression forces in N Iraq/S Kurdistan sent attack helicopters to bomb and start new fires.

After that, the locals continue their extinguishing work, under threat of attack helicopters and drones.

Turkey's fortifications for military occupation of N Iraq/S Kurdistan have many times previously bombarded against locals going out to extinguish their crops and forests after the invader ignited their livelihoods.

Last night in the vicinity of Kani Masi, Dohuk Governorate in Kurdistan Region of Iraq (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kani_Masi).
Erdoğan's imperialist war of aggression keeps on rolling in.

The ruling quisling KDP's forces and the federal govt under pressure from the same keep doing nothing – only the guerrillas defend the people the best they can.

Turkey "continues its military deployment to South Kurdistan[/Kurdistan Region of Iraq]

[...] dozens of military vehicles belonging to the Turkish state were dispatched to the village of Guherzê in the Amêdiyê district of Duhok on Sunday night.

The entire military deployment is being carried out under the protection of the KDP [quisling party for Erdoğan's invasions in both Başûr/South Kurdistan and aiding Turkey's invasion of Rojava/North and East Syria, ruling S Kurdistan through corruption and brutality]. Armored vehicles are moving in the occupied areas with the Kurdistan Region flag. The KDP is protecting the Turkish soldiers."

"The new agreement has laid the foundation for the deployment of Turkish troops in Baghdad in the near future"

It's gonna get... difficult, for news organizations to explain to their audiences how they weren't told about years of extortion using the essential Euphrates and Tigris, years of requests from Iraq to please get Turkey out of Iraq and stop the military occupation, decade of the quisling party KDP collaborating with the invader both of neighbor Rojava/N&E Syria and of Iraq, to now Iraq seemingly having simply surrendered under the extortion, invasion and world "leaders" indifference.
-But... why didn't you report about it?
-Wellll... we were afraid of the repression of the press by Erdoğan's dictatorship in Turkey, where many of us still have our regional bureaus... and we thought it was just the Kurds, so we didn't care.
Not a good look.

Turkey's bombing of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq continues also this evening, here seen for example in the area of Lolan at Bradost:

Heavy fighting tonight again between the defending freedom guerrilla and the imperilaist war of aggresion forces of Erdoğan in Barwari Bala of the Amêdî District, Duhok Governorate of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (S Kurdistan/N Iraq, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barwari#Iraq).
