TURKEY has continued to employ chemical weapons during its illegal war in Iraqi Kurdistan, with at least seven attacks using banned munitions reported in the last week. 

The Nato member state has been bombing Kurdish villages on a daily basis for more than a year while the world’s media and state institutions remain silent on the aggression. 

Operation Claw Lock, launched in April, saw an intensification of Turkey’s military offensive, with ground troops deployed in the Avasin, Metina and Zap mountain ranges of Duhok province.
