Although our shared condolence fo the relatives of martyred Peshmarga, we think that the activities of sleeper cells of Islamic state militants which is the result of the vacuum between Iraqi army and Peshmarga forces and it has been used as a chance by Islamic state, is a serious danger on the Iraq and Kurdistan Region generally, especially for Kerkuk and disputed areas.

Also we think that cooperation between Iraq and the ministry of Peshmarga as well as the support by international coalition is a necessary step in order to disassemble terrorist plans and to save people life and the security of the region.
