I wrote about this very phenomenon, the highway built for expulsion, in my book on #Kirkuk. Here’s a short (less than 2 minute) podcast episode I recorded a couple years ago covering this bit of my research #iraq #urban #urbanism

(Goes without saying that many others have written about much more famous examples)

#Iraq 🇮🇶: #ISIS militants carried out a night raid on Iraqi Army base near Qara Hanjir in #Kirkuk.

Militants appear to be armed with AKMS rifles and a suppressed M16A2/A4 rifle.

As a result militants captured a Bulgarian Arsenal MG-1M machine gun and four M16A4 assault rifles.

The state of #Iraq reconquered #Kirkuk on #Barzani #Kurdistan. It's not about the people there, but the oilfields around the city. This is Iraq saying yes to the Iraq #Kurds wanting independence, but excluding the oilfields in disputed territory.
