Iranian regime unprecedentedly has moved its revolutionary guards and army with full military equipment to all over Eastern and Southern Kurdistan border.
According to the Firat News Agency (ANF) reports, Iranian regime in an unprecedentedly and widespread way has dispatched numerous forces to the border areas of Rojhelat1, from Maku to Kirmaşan2. It is said that this preparation of Iranian regime for war against Southern Kurdistan is extremely wider than the war of Qendil3 three years ago.
A trusted source said Iranian regime has sent enormous number of ground, air, army and revolutionary guard forces to the border cities of Rojhelat from Maku to Kirmaşan. This time in preparation of Iran beside tank, cannon, heavy and light military equipments, they brought several fighter aircrafts to these cities.
This is while, ANF before was saying the regime has moved a large number of troops from Urmiye to Pîranşar (Piranshahr) and moved Saberin corps, which is revolutionary guard’s special forces to Qesrî Şîrîn4.
A while ago also the brigadier general Ali Arasteh, assistant coordinator of ground forces of army has announced the complete alertness of their forces on the border of Rojhelat.
It is said that most of the high rank commanders of army and revolutionary guards are in the border cities of Rojhelat and military forces are in complete alertness.
The Target, Southern Kurdistan
According to the reports, the Iranian regime’s goal is to involve Southern Kurdistan in the war and brings Iraq crisis as an excuse. Even according to the Özgür Gündem newspaper, during the ISIS attack on Mosul, Iran threatened Mesud Barzani to stop supporting ISIS terrorists
By creating a Sunni caliphate state in Iraq and Syria, ISIS is threatening Iranian position in the region, which claims the leadership of Muslim world.
Increase in Military movements in Rojhelat
According to the reports, despite complete alertness of army and revolutionary guard forces in Rojhelat cities, only in Pawe5 a short clash has happened. Based on the trusted sources in the region it is not clear which armed group involved in that clash with Iranian forces but the regional hireling groups linked to the revolutionary guards are patrolling in mountains of that area and harassing people.
This is while the waves of Salafism (Salafi movement) and deception of youths in Rojhelat to join the ISIS has been increased in a way that in Ciwanro6 Salafists harassing people and in Pîranşar and Seqiz also encouraging Kurdish youths to join ISIS and other Islamic extremist groups.
On 15th June almost 8000 forces of Qods forces7 settled in Serpêlzehaw8 city and in the areas between Dalahoo and Xaneqin for supporting Nouri Al-Maliki government and encountering ISIS terrorist group and Iraqi Sunnis. These movements were the result of inviting Nechirvan Barzani by Iranian government to achieve support and agreement of Southern Kurdistan regional government for entering Qods forces into Southern Kurdistan and Iraq.
It is worth mentioning 3 years ago on 16th July 2011 Iranian forces all of a sudden with heavy artillery fire and sending thousands of troops started an attack on Eastern Kurdistan Forces (HRK) whom were in Qendil mountain, on the border of Eastern and Southern Kurdistan; which faced the resistance of Guerrillas and forced to withdraw and demanded ceasefire. During those days Iran forces frequently violated the integrity of Kurdish Regional Government (KRG).
The people who live in border areas are worried that once again Iranian regime for its purposes wants to dispatch war to outside its borders and become the cause of killing innocent people and destroying villages.
