| A collection of videos, describing and showing some of the events as the
Iraqi forces / Iranian backed militia invaded and committed various war crimes on and shortly following the 16th October, 2017,
three weeks after an independence referendum for Bashur, Iraqi Kurdistan, was held on 25th September, 2017, resulting in 92.73% of
votes in favour of independence, with a turnout of 72.16% of registered voters. The invasion marked a major set-back in Kurdish
hopes for an independent nation as the KRG has lost 40% of land under its jurisdiction and their main source of revenue, the Kirkuk
oil fields. As a result, the KRG was now reliant on an annual budget from the central Iraqi government. The KRG, was also made to sign
a handwritten pledge not to seek independence again as a precondition for the end of the conflict. |
