SULAIMANI
– A Turkish air strike hit the headquarters of the People’s Assembly in
Khanasor, Sinjar on Saturday (December 11), an NRT reporter in the area said.
Turkish
warplanes bombed the headquarters at 8pm on Saturday, NRT reporter Nazir
Shengali said.
The
reporter stated two people were wounded in the air strike. The building was
also badly damaged.
Nadia’s
Initiative, an NGO founded by Ezidi Nobel Laureate Nadia Murad, condemned the
bombing in a statement.
"Turkey,
a NATO member, is terrorizing the Yazidi population instead of targeting ISIS.
The international community has a moral obligation to speak out against Turkish
aggression,” the NGO statement read.
Officials
in the district have not yet commented on the incident, the second Turkish air
strike in Khanasor this week.
Marwan
Badal, the co-chair of the Autonomous Administration Council in Sinjar, was
killed in a Turkish drone air strike on Tuesday in Khanasor.
